I acknowledge First Peoples as the first artists, the first storytellers, the first makers of community and the first creators of culture. I acknowledge the Wadawurrung people of the Kulin Nation as the Traditional Owners of the Country on which I live and practise, and pay my respects to Elders past and present, whose stories, knowledge and living culture remain at the heart of this place.
