Sharing Stories Arts Exchange Exhibition featured work by participants of the program from October 11-26, 2022.
Previously known as the Bundian Way Arts Exchange, the exhibition is a creative participatory project focusing on building positive reciprocal relationships between the Canberra community and local regional Indigenous and non-indigenous communities.
The Sharing Stories Arts Exchange (SSAE) features culturally rich learning opportunities and events in the ACT as well as a structured creative field program visiting areas in south-eastern NSW which include the Bundian Way; a shared historic pathway used by Aboriginal people for tens of thousands of years, linking Mount Kosciuszko with Twofold Bay on the Far South Coast of NSW.
The aim of the program is to build on existing shared values by way of active reconciliation: learning from local Indigenous people and increasing awareness and understanding of the complexities of culture and reconciliation through creative outcomes.
