NAIDOC week is a time to celebrate the history, culture, and achievements of First Nations peoples.


The National NAIDOC Week awards pay tribute to Indigenous pioneers who made contributions that changed the lives of their communities.

It is one of the biggest events on the calendar for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, and has been held this year in Adelaide.

Artists from Kokatha, Mirning, Wirangoo and other coastal states exhibit their work and use their art and culture to talk about the environment at Ceduna on the shores of Murat Bay on the west coast of the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia.
