Our Survival Day 2022 – Reconnection

Our Songlines Presents Our Survival Day 2022 – An Indigenous-Led Community Event Providing A Safe And Culturally Empowering Space For First Nations People And Their Allies To Gather On January 26th.

With a focus on Indigenous education, cultural entertainment, food and sustainability through the theme of ‘Reconnection’, Our Survival Day 2022 will have something for everyone to enjoy. It is a culturally safe and environmentally friendly space set amongst the hills of The Briars, Mt Martha on Bunurong land, of the Boon Wurrung Language Group within the Kulin Nation, amongst Indigenous plants, trees, birds, and habitat for wildlife. You will feel the connection as soon as you walk onto Bunurong land: be welcomed by the trees, the birds, the First Nations musical voices, the smell of Indigenous bush foods, friends enjoying picnics and playing games, cultural workshops, dancing, families of diverse backgrounds and many activities to participate in at your leisure.

The event will feature an exclusively First Nations lineup of performers Ganga Giri, Miss Hood, Jalgany, Chasing Ghosts, Caution, Natarsha Bamblett, a host of First Nations and ally-owned stalls, as well as guided tours, workshops, activities for children and a free bbq.

Our Survival Day is brought to you by Our Songlines, a 100% Aboriginal-owned and woman-led organisation that is passionate about making Indigenous culture accessible to First Nations and allies alike, in a supportive, safe environment.
