Presented in partnership with the Koorie Heritage Trust, The Birrarung Wilam Walk takes guests through Federation Square and down to the Birrarung Wilam (Common Ground) Aboriginal art installations to experience the Aboriginal history of the Birrarung Marr (Beside the river of mists) and the Aboriginal Peoples of the Kulin Nation.
Led by Yorta Yorta/Taungurung woman Donna Blackall, learn how the land on which Melbourne is located has changed over time and the significance of the Birrarung Wilam to the local Kulin peoples. Gain a deeper and more meaningful understanding of this location, an important gathering place for the Kulin Nation and one of Melbourne’s most popular meeting spots.
