Acknowledgement of Traditional Custodians

We pay our respects to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ancestors of this land, their spirits and their legacy. The foundations laid by these ancestors give strength, inspiration and courage to current and future generations, both First Nations and non-First Nations peoples, towards creating a better Queensland.

Overview

Having trouble deciding which Out of the Box events to attend? Buy tickets to multiple events here.

Come and create meaningful resources that reflect your cultural and personal stories in this special, nourishing workshop for mamas and bubs in their first 1000 days (conception to the age of three). Every morning, mothers can engage in creative practice with their bubs while exploring the importance of connection to country, our ancestors and arts and culture as part of our Motherhood journey.

Based in Gimuy / Cairns, For Mothers is presented by Púuna, a creative and cultural project developed by global indigenous artists and mamas Lia Pa’apa’a (Samoan/Luiseño) and Johannah Maza (Yidinji/Mer/Irish) who work to empower mums through design, craft, food and weaving, creating meaningful resources for their babies and families.

For Mothers Workshop:
Tue 17 Jun – Fri 20 Jun & Sun 22 Jun
9:30-11:30am. Bookings essential.

For Mothers is part of QPAC’s Out of the Box.
