I’d like to acknowledge my deadly Cuzzy...,



Dean Bell - Yurwang Gundana Cultural Heritage Services, for inviting my Brothers Bip, Das and me to be part of the Duke Energy Gas Pipeline project at the start of 2000, and for the invaluable cultural learning I received through his consultancy work in the early 2000s.

Through Dean’s cultural guidance, I learned the importance of working, supporting, healing and protecting Ngunawal Country; one of our the homelands where our bloodlines, songlines and lineages come from.

He generously shared his knowledge of Country and taught us the importance of conserving and preserving our Ancestors' sites, artefacts, traditional scarred trees, ring trees and gunyas.

Those experiences inspired my spirit and strengthened my commitment to connecting with, caring for and looking after Country in so many ways. The lessons, wisdom and respect for culture that Dean shared continue to guide me today.

Thank you, Cuzzy, for your leadership, knowledge and generosity. Nothing but love, gratitude and respect, always. 👣

And it's also great we still are supporting and connecting to Country together in each of our consultancies.

"Country Has a Story to Tell"

Konanggo Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Services (KACHS) was established in 2007. We work in consultation with archaeologists, Traditional Custodians and communities to connect, heal, and protect Country. Our work focuses on preserving Aboriginal cultural heritage, including ancestral artefacts, scarred trees, and culturally significant sites, ensuring they are respected and safeguarded for future generations. 👣

"What if I told you"...?

Trees are not just here to give us shade.

For a short example, trees provide oxygen, birds, insects and animals, fuel for fire, materials for gunyas, tools, and so much more.

Our trees are a vital part of Country.

It's up to all of us to care for and protect them, so future generations can enjoy, learn from, and survive alongside them, just as our Ancestors did for us. ❤️💛🖤

Did you know ?

Xanthorrhoea, or grass tree, very resilient and versatile plant that has traditionally provided incredible resources for Mob.

Sweet Energy Drink,
In spring, its white flowers produce rich nectar that can be dipped in water to make a sweet drink (just be mindful of the bees, wasps, and birds that enjoy it too!).

Tools or Weapons,
The stem makes excellent spears and walking sticks. When mixed with sand or charcoal, the resin creates a strong binding agent for stone axes, spearheads, and fishing prongs, as well as a sealant for leaks in nawis (canoes) and coolamons.

Medicine,
The resin is also traditionally used as a remedy for toothaches and pains.

Adapts to fire,
It is an exceptionally strong, fire-adapted plant that easily survives bushfires, also start fire for campsites.

If you are interested in learning more about traditional knowledge and connection to Country, I invite you to join us for a

Important Update: Exhibition Launch Postponed

We want to let our community know that the upcoming launch event scheduled for 11 September has been postponed due to unexpected and unforeseen circumstances outside of our control.

We understand this may cause inconvenience, and we sincerely apologise.

The good news is that we have now locked in new exhibition dates: 13 November to 11 December — and we’re excited to share that the much‑anticipated launch event will take place on Friday, 13 November.

At the launch, you’ll have the special opportunity to meet and talk with some of the artists whose powerful works are featured in the exhibition.

Thank you for your patience, understanding, and continued support.

We look forward to welcoming everyone on 13 November and sharing this important exhibition with you.

Warm regards, KBHAC Coolamon Arts Hub

KBHAC’s Coolamon Arts Hub inaugural exhibition, Truth-Telling: Our Past, Present and Future, is on its way to Paddington for the next two months

Showcasing some deadly artworks by KBH Survivors like Uncle Richard P Campbell (see bio below), Truth-Telling: Our Past, Present and Future features works that share the Uncles experiences of KBH, the legacies it has left on their lives and the journey of reuniting and healing.

The exhibition also features Noongar and Spinifex visual storyteller Tace Steven's photographic collaboration with the KBH Survivors titled 'We Were Just Little Boys'.

Bio : Uncle Richard Campbell: Acrylic on Canvas

A Stolen Generations Survivor, Richard was born in Bowraville in 1958. His mother was a Gumbaynggirr woman, and his father from the Dunghutti tribe.

Richard spent his early years living with his parents and four siblings (one older brother and three younger sisters) at Bowraville Aboriginal Mission.

It was there Richard was introduced to art making by his father who would carve and burn images on to boomerangs, shields and spears which he would sell for food for the family.

But in 1966 Richard and his four siblings were kidnapped from the family and Richard and his older brother were taken to Kinchela Boys Home near Kempsey.

KACHS is incredibly grateful to Nura Gili for inviting us to participate in the NAIDOC Event last month. As respect is something we value deeply, we were honoured to invite the Nura Gili Deadly Team to join us our first new bus tour on Country.
Beautiful day included a Walk on Country and a Weaving session with Aunty Pam, creating a safe space away from the important work they do every day supporting Mob through education. Together, we connected, shared, healed and strengthen our ties to Mother Earth.
A huge thank you to Nura Gili team for joining us and sharing in this special experience. It was a deadly day filled with culture, connection, learning and mutual respect and we look forward to continuing build and strengthen our relationship.
Thanks Nura Gili, for walking alongside of us on Country. ❤️💛🖤
