Event Details
Join this weaving workshop at Killalea Regional Park these school holidays. It’s a great introduction to Aboriginal culture. You’ll have the privilege of being taught by a senior Aboriginal NPWS guide.
Visit Killalea Regional Park, between Shellharbour and Kiama, and learn how to weave with grasses, reeds and natural materials. After you’ve honed your skills, you’ll have the opportunity to weave your own souvenir to take home with you.
As you explore your creative side, your guide will share how Aboriginal women weave baskets, carry bags and other items for daily use. You’ll discover how these ancient skills and practices carry a strong cultural connection for local Aboriginal women.
All material will be supplied on the day.
Wear enclosed shoes, a hat and sun cream. Bring drinking water and a snack.
