PAST EVENTS
On the 19th of June 2022 at the Milton theatre, we screened a local film highlighting the importance of connecting Aboriginal Elders, fire practitioners and youth to create healthy communities and Country.
Cultural Burning for Resilience is an Aboriginal-led community project, supported by the University of Wollongong’s Global Challenges Program and Treading Lightly Inc. The action research project brings together Aboriginal high school students with Yuin Elders and cultural land management practitioners from the South Coast to learn about good fire, bad fire, and connection to Country.
The project was a collaboration between Yuin Indigenous Elders and community –
Ulladulla Local Aboriginal Land Council and local Yuin cultural fire practitioners; students from Ulladulla, Batemans Bay, Bomaderry & Nowra High School students & teachers.
We were so excited to finally be able to bring community together to watch this beautiful film on the big screen here on Yuin Country.
You can now view the movie yourself at home. CLICK HERE

Gateway Community Sculpture workshops
We were proud to partner with local Nowra artist, Dora Rognvaldsdottir to host community workshops, at our Treading Lightly Community Hub during June 2021.
Participants were able to contribute to a public art sculpture that focuses on the 2019 – 2020 bushfires. They helped to create ceramic and mosaic panels of local native animals which will be integrated into the amazing sculpture by Dora. The final product will be erected at Ulladulla Harbour.

This was an important platform for fire affected communities to create together, a beautiful artwork that we can all be proud of.
