Place Names Katanning Exhibition

Katanning

CAN and the Katanning Noongar Leadership Group proudly joined in hosting the community at an installation of language and artworks, featuring the magnificent Mulka and Djinda puppets, in the main street of Katanning.

Despite Covid-19 putting an end to the Harmony Festival parade in the town, community and visitors joined in the celebration of over 18 months work, displayed in a pop-up exhibition over the Harmony weekend.

Elders and community from the Great Southern towns of Katanning, Tambellup, Gnowangerup and Badgebup welcomed the wider community to learn about Noongar place naming in their area. Each place name was interpreted with its Noongar significance in what was an important experience for the whole community.
