NAIDOC Damper Making

Celebrate culture, creativity and connection during NAIDOC Week with a hands-on workshop the whole family will love. Join our Families Team and Kaya-Lee Carson for a relaxed and engaging session where you will learn how to make traditional damper from scratch, while discovering its history, before tasting your freshly baked creation.

Alongside the delicious experience of damper making, children and adults can take part in a simple, fun craft activity designed to inspire creativity and encourage shared learning. It is a wonderful opportunity for families to come together, explore culture in an interactive way, and create lasting memories. 

Come along to learn, connect, and celebrate together - this is an experience you do not want to miss.
