16.01.2022 Are you rescheduling your holiday to the Pilbara for 2021? Volunteering at our event is a great way to immerse yourself in the Experience of Karijini National Park! Tara a volunteer from 2019 summed it up perfectly:... "When I got asked to volunteer and the Karijini Experience, I thought that it sounded great to be part of a team to showcase the Karijini National Park. I didnt realise what a life changing experience it would be and what a journey it was! Met so any awesome people, work was hard but the socialising was great, music was fantastic jam night was the best. I loved camping on the airstrip in my little tent and the food was amazing whod have known we would be so well looked after in the middle of nowhere! The whole event was so well organised and the program fantastic, so much to do. The scenery was so spectacular and Im so glad I got to be part of staying in the middle of it, it was inspiring for my art and my life. I left Karijini feeling absolutely exhausted but content and happy with a huge smile on my face. I will be back for sure." To Apply: https://www.volunteeringwa.org.au//finding-/position-list

02.01.2022 The critically-acclaimed documentary In My Blood It Runs was going to be featured at our Experience Film event In 2020, it will now be screened in July on ABC and ABC iview! Told through the eyes of charismatic 10-year-old Arrernte/Garrwa boy Dujuan and his family, the film charts the challenges Dujuan faces both in his school and on the streets of Alice Springs. In his community Dujuan is recognised as a child-healer and a hunter. He speaks three languages, yet despite his d...epth of wisdom and intelligence, Dujuan is failing in school and facing increasing scrutiny from welfare and the police. As he travels perilously close to incarceration, his family fight to give him a strong Arrente education alongside his western education. We walk with him as he grapples with these pressures, shares his truths and somewhere in-between finds space to dream, imagine and hope for his future. In My Blood It Runs reveals the complexities First Nations communities face negotiating colonisation whilst maintaining their cultural identities and practices through self-determination, the revitalisation of languages and connection to Country. It is a deeply moving insight into a side of Australia rarely depicted on screen.

02.01.2022 A reminder to get your expressions of interest in to be a part of the 2021 Karijini Experience!

02.01.2022 Thank you to our Platinum Sponsors Bennco, fantastic supporters of the community, and the Karijini Experience! Our event wouldnt be possible with out local businesses like these
