takara nipaluna (Walking Hobart)

About the Tour:

This is a historical story-telling tour that combines the history of lutruwita Tasmania with a style of presentation and storytelling like no other on the market. Initially developed through a performing arts lens and first presented through Ten Days on the Island Festival, truly unlike any other on the market.
 
Created by award-winning palawa and Walpiri woman Nunami Sculthorpe-Green, The walk follows the route taken in 1832 by members of the Aboriginal resistance, retracing their steps as they progressed to the old Government House to negotiate an end to the Black War. As the only Aboriginal-led tour of nipaluna/Hobart, this is a must-do experience
