  • Australian National Maritime Museum (map)

In this workshop, participants will have the opportunity to learn from Gringai/Worimi man Luke Russell, and participate in making fishing spears.

Luke Russell is a proud Gringai/Worimi man and Cultural Knowledge Holder. Luke's practice and research is focused on learning and passing on the Indigenous knowledge of his Elders. This includes sharing his knowledge of the practice of Kuueeyung, traditional bark canoe-making, and tool making utilising sourced and natural materials. Luke is dedicated to re-awakening the true language, stories, artefacts and practices of the Worimi people, and those within the Kattung language group.
