Thank you... ❤️

Ah, the Olympics...

I wish all my countrymen well in representing themselves professionally overseas, for a society that still actively won't let us represent ourselves in our lands.

Take good care.

Take good care this week my Countrymen. May your old old people and old people, keep you and yours, well and safe.
🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️

Blak and damned deadly... RIP Destiny Deacon.

This amazing Tidda, her hubby and her family needs OUR HELP!

Click on the Go Fund Me link at the bottom of THIS Insta profile to find out more and to donate.

If you're a teacher who's school has had the pleasure of her company, sit down in your staffroom and talk with others about how you can all donate together and help out now.

If your a local govt employee who has had Marissa and the crew cater for you, laugh and fill your space with nothing but positives and good feels, then get organised - talk to your colleagues and councils and do what you can to support her now.

If your a govt dept that has also been spoilt by Marissa's presence - reach out to your co-workers and get organised now. Help this amazing countryman out, given the many times this woman has given more of herself to you.

Don't wait. Don't over-think it. Don't faff about. HELP OUT!

I have seen Marissa give over 100% of herself to so many others out there, whilst doing what she does and I've seen the difference Marissa has made to so many fellas, who aren't Aboriginal peoples.

You haven't laughed properly if you haven't busted a gut laughing with Marissa, Sandra and Drew - when they come out and cater for you.

Help ALL of what is Marissa's legacy. Let's give em the best shot we got!

Thinking of all of you Bindi Bindi Dreaming. We will all do what we can to help. 🤗❤️

G'day Folks...

Want to work with us at John Curtin Gallery in Bentley? Check out our vacancy:

Gallery Production Coordinator Job in Bentley, Perth WA - SEEK Rare and exciting opportunity to work in one of Western Australia's major public galleries recognised for its outstanding exhibition program.

Yankunytjatjara artist Robert Fielding, makes his marks and creates, between the moon and the sun. He does so not just within and through the light that each entity casts, but through the life cycles they present to all living things.

"KINARA MUNU TJINTU (MOON AND SUN)" shares with us an intimate knowledge of the lore that the moon and sun are charged with and the crystal clear understanding that the light that each provides us with, touches all of us now in the same way that it touched all of those who have gone before us.

I'm incredibly grateful that I can sit in the yarns that other countrymen bring, as they visit Boorloo and share who they are amongst the amazing arts folks that I work with. Thank you Robert and Angus, it's been a pleasure.

(Get yourself down to John Curtin Gallery and see Robert's works, brought to us from his beloved Mimili country. See John Curtin Gallery's website for details.)

You stood up, you were counted and you were "GOOD fellas".

Now you know, without a doubt, a big TRUTH about this country.

There are still so many, who aren't!
