Moondani Balluk invites you to Footscray Park Campus to celebrate NAIDOC on Tuesday 4 July.

We will begin our celebration by practising our traditional welcoming and smoking ceremony.

At mid-morning, you can move onto our free entertainment on campus: the Hip Hop Indigenous Outreach Projects Dance Group.

Following our morning celebrations, we will provide a light lunch on floor 1 of Building G and invite you all to explore our new space.

We are offering self-guided and guided tours of our new space with help of the Aboriginal Archive team, highlighting the elders of importance to Moondani Balluk Indigenous Academic Unit.
