Event
National Reconciliation Week at the South Australian Museum is more than a program of events, it's an invitation to deepen your understanding of our shared histories and consider how each of us can contribute to reconciliation in Australia.
The theme for National Reconciliation Week this year is All In, a call for all Australians to commit wholeheartedly to reconciliation every day.
Join cultural guides from Bookabee Australia for an informative tour of the Australian Aboriginal Cultures Gallery. The gallery contains the largest and most comprehensive collection of Australian Aboriginal cultural material in the world. Tours available Wednesday 27 May, Saturday 30 May and Tuesday 2 June. Booking is essential.
On Level 2 of the Museum, families with young children aged 3-6 years can explore a dedicated space designed to introduce young learners to the spirit of Reconciliation Week. Picture books by First Nations authors and illustrators create a gentle entry point into culture, identity and Country. This space will open from Saturday 30 May to Wednesday 3 June and is free to explore. No bookings required.
A new display will also open in the Museum's foyer celebrates the spirit of reconciliation behind Kaurna Wangayarta, the award-winning purpose-built memorial park dedicated to Kaurna ancestral remains reburials.
