TLAS WORKSHOP
​𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗗𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 
𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗵𝗮𝗺 𝗧𝗼𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘆

If you choose to create, please bring: 
​Your preferred paints (acrylic, watercolour, oil, etc.)
A range of brushes and water containers. an old towel. A canvas will be provided to all participants.
Step into a creative journey that few artists ever get to experience.
Join respected Wiradjuri and Wongaibon artist Graham Toomey, a celebrated Aboriginal visual artist and cultural educator, for a powerful hands-on workshop exploring culture, Country, and the meaning of marramarra — “to create.”
This is a rare opportunity to learn directly from a First Nations tutor whose practice is deeply rooted in traditional lore, storytelling, and living culture. Participants will be guided through Aboriginal perspectives on values, beliefs, customs, practices, and the significance of Country — not as concepts, but as experiences.
Your workshop begins with a Smoking Ceremony, offering a moment of grounding and welcome. You’ll then be invited to create your own ‘Dreaming’ artwork (optional, though warmly encouraged), supported by Graham’s cultural knowledge and artistic guidance.
While you work, the onsite café at Red Tree Theatre will be open, so you can enjoy a coffee or snack during breaks.
