Join master weavers from the remote community of Numbulwar in South East Arnhem Land for two hands-on weaving circle workshops. Learn traditional techniques passed down through generations and about Maguj (pandanus) and Nanja (repurposed ghost nets) colected from our shores. Once a deadly threat to marine life, ghost nets are reclaimed by the artists and transformed into vessels of story and strength. As you weave, you're part of a living practice connecting people, place, and purpose. Sit with us, share stories, and take part in keeping Culture and Country strong
