Katijin Coolungah Education Program
The program delivers age-appropriate interactive workshops, tours and artist talks to provide learning experiences through the lens of art on themes associated with human rights, sustainability, inclusiveness and reconciliation.
The Carrolup Art Collection, created by children at the Carrolup Native Settlement offers a unique opportunity to learn about the lived experience of the Stolen Generations and its ongoing impact on First Nations peoples.
Our curriculum-based education resources are designed to support educators before, during and after the activities, creating long-lasting benefits by extending the learning experience into the classroom. The program facilitates positive, inclusive and accessible learning to foster critical thinking, spark curiosity and develop skills and understanding of the world around us.
