A Garma Festival of Traditional Culture
Garma Festival of Traditional Culture. The Garma Festival is a celebration of the Yolngu cultural inheritance. The Garma ceremony is aimed at sharing knowledge and culture, and opening people’s hearts to the message of the land at Gulkula. The site at Gulkula has profound meaning for Yolngu. Set in a stringybark forest with views to the Gulf of Carpentaria, Gulkula is where the ancestor Ganbulabula brought the Yidaki (didjeridu) into being among the Gumatj people. The festival is designed to encourage the practice, preservation and maintenance of traditional dance (bunggul), song (manikay), art and ceremony on Yolngu lands in North East Arnhem Land.

Lore of the Land
Lore of the Land is designed to encourage us to live in harmony with each other and with the land we each call home. Through deepening our knowledge of who we are and where we are together, we can create a new story. Acknowledging the land as sacred opens our hearts to mend fractured relationships between ourselves, the land and each other. With this acknowledgment, the healing can begin. Lore of the Land invites all Australians to explore, understand and reflect on their own relationship with and love of the land. It is a journey of cultural insights, Australian landscapes and Indigenous voices, that represents an ideal opportunity for learning about ourselves in a way which may alter our perceptions about how we view our country.
