On Saturday, 26 August, we are honoured to have Wurundjeri-willam (Wurundjeri-baluk patriline) artist and founder of Djirri Djirri Dance Group Mandy Nicholson, facilitating a Woiwurrung language workshop for us.

Mandy is a Traditional Custodian of Melbourne and surrounds and also has connections to the Dja Dja wurrung and Ngurai illam wurrung language groups of the Central/Eastern Kulin Nation on her father's side and German on her mother's.

She is a recognised artist, qualified Archaeologist and leader of the Djirri Djirri Dance Group. She worked at the Victorian Aboriginal Corporation for Languages for six years, supporting language projects, school programs and communities in the revival of their languages.

She holds a PhD in how Aboriginal people connect to Country, off Country.

This presentation focuses on the revival practices to keep Woiwurrung alive. Suitable for all ages.
