Presented in partnership with Moondani Toombadool Centre and Swinburne Student Life, this exhibition showcases works from the Swinburne 2024 annual NAIDOC Design Competition.

Blak, Loud & Proud’, honouring the enduring strength and vitality of First Nations culture. Observed each year in the first week of July, NAIDOC week is a national celebration and recognition of the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
