Have you heard of the Bidjara, Ghungalu and Garingbal people of Australia? Now you can get to know their culture through art. D Harding is our artist in February, and he visits Guovdageaidnu to talk about how he works. Máret Ánne Sara and Wenche Marie Hætta lead the conversation, which is in English. We will serve coffee, tea and something to chew on. Welcome!
