We're celebrating NAIDOC and First Nations culture with a morning tea featuring native ingredients, including lemon myrtle, macadamias and wattleseed. The event also raised money for cultural programs that ensure Aboriginal children in care remain close to culture and community.

We are excited to announce a new fellowship program in partnership with the Australian National Academy of Music (ANAM) to support ANAM alums forging independent artistic careers. Find out more: tinyurl.com/y2attzrk 📸ANAM alum Alex Meagher. Photo © Pia Johnson
