Entitled The Journey Down, the epic 3,456-kilometre trek is an animated and vibrant performance of culture, dance, song, projections and otherworldly sound coming together onto a travelling canvas of story and culture.

 The tour which presents an intercultural program to 12 communities and regional centers has been commissioned from and developed by Gija, Miriwoong and non-Indigenous artists from around Australia.
