The program brings together First Nations artists, performers, makers and cultural practitioners from across Far North Queensland. Cairns Regional Council’s event listing describes traditional and contemporary dance, an art market, culture and craft workshops, children’s activities and local food vans.
UMI Arts says the festival is a chance for the community to come together around First Nations art, music and culture. People planning to attend should check the organiser’s latest information for any program changes.
