Research Report
Pilar Kasat’s 2014 essay tells the story behind CAN’s Narrogin Stories project, using it as an example of the power of the arts to produce social change. At the time of writing Kasat was managing director of CAN and was one of the key players in this project, which was developed in response to six Aboriginal youth suicides in the town of Narrogin, and the shock, grief and family feuds that followed. A community artist was engaged with the brief of facilitating a new narrative for the Noongar community in Narrogin.
