In Bunbury CAN worked with the descendents of the Hill, Bennell and Collard families to honour their relatives’ journey from the farming town of Pingelly to their traditional home country around Burekup and Bunbury. This was an intergenerational arts and storytelling workshop program that celebrated the journey of the family, involving the grandchildren and great-grandchildren of Charles and Rachel Hill (both deceased). CAN ran eco-dyeing, blanket-making, textile and photo-sharing workshops with the families to craft handmade baby blankets. The blankets were decorated with fabric photo prints featuring members of their family past and present – beautiful keepsakes that tell their stories.
Be part of a movement that believes community participation in the arts can transform lives, inspire change and create a more inclusive society for us all.
Donations will support creative programs that make a genuine difference to the communities we work with.
