Ten Days Among the YOLNGU PEOPLE OF ne ARNHEM LAND, AUSTRALIA

This trip is a rare opportunity to visit a community of Indigenous Australians who are living on and managing their traditional lands. The strength, love and dignity of the Mäpuru people will deeply touch you as they guide us in learning theri ancient ways of being and crafts.

Please go to www.arnhemweavers.com.au for more information about Mäpuru and the cultural tours.

The teaching is conducted as it has been for thousands of years in traditional Aboriginal communities. So we sit, we observe the techniques they use and we weave under the watchful eyes of the women. Throughout the ten days we will all share much laughter and fun with the women, men and children under the weaving shelter.
