Join us for a Welcome to Country with local Menang Elder Vernice Gillies.
Come and join local Menang elder and long-time supporter of Albany Pride Vernice Gillies to welcome the festival starting at the National ANZAC Centre Albany. We will then invite guests to walk with us up to the top of the lookout and Vern will tell their story of the Stirlings, Porongurups and the Mammang Koort the open sea which is the heart (Koort) of the whale (Mammang).
This will be the first time Albany Pride Festival has had an official local Noongar welcome, so it will be a special event and one not to miss.
This event is FREE and we ask that attendees consider supporting the work of Vern and other local artists by visiting and purchasing some beautiful traditional Aboriginal art and craft from local Aboriginal owned and run store Kurrah Mia.
