For Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, the Dreamtime describes a time when the earth, people and animals were created by our ancestral spiritual beings. They created the rivers, lakes, plants, land formations and living creatures.

Dreaming tracks crisscross Australia and trace the journeys of our ancestral spirits as they created the land, animals and lores. These dreaming tracks are sometimes called ‘Songlines’ as they record the travels of these

ancestral spirits who 'sung' the land into life. These Songlines are recorded in traditional songs, stories, dance and art. They carry significant spiritual and cultural connection to

knowledge, customs, ceremony and Lore of many Aboriginal nations and Torres Strait Islander language groups. Through learning more about Songlines and how they connect people to Country and the Country to people – we celebrate the

rich history and diversity of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures - the oldest continuing cultures on the planet.

You are invited to come and celebrate NAIDOC DAY with the Board, Staff and Community of

Mullum Mullum Indigenous Gathering Place.
