Join us for a series of talks set against the backdrop of the Once Known exhibition from Reconciliation Week to NAIDOC Week 2025.
Hear the stories of the Carrolup child artists and the people who impacted them, through a series of discussions and truth-telling talks about the past, the present, and what’s next.
The series of conversations will introduce you to Stolen Generations community members, survivors of Carrolup, professional allies of these artworks, John Curtin Gallery staff who care for these artworks, and people who have become a living part of these stories themselves, through their own family connections.
This series invites you to gain a deeper understanding and make the stories of these children part of your story.
