NEW ROEBOURNE
New Roebourne is an intergenerational arts and social change project created in Roebourne (Ieramugadu) W.A, the cultural heart of Australia’s Pilbara.
New Roebourne is delivered by Big hART in collaboration with Roebourne and surrounding communities. It builds on the strengths of Roebourne to create compelling high quality content, build skills, and boost pride and wellbeing in the local community.
Compelling content created with the community, telling their remarkable story. Content includes digital art, theatre, music, interactive comics, dance, visual art, documentaries, short films and more - promoting a positive new picture of Roebourne.
Participation in education and work, new skills and capacity, intergenerational exchange between Elders and young people, agency for young women and intercultural dialogue — to assist the community to thrive.
A positive new future based on Roebourne’s untapped potential, and the depth of culture across the Pilbara region — creating a sustained legacy.
BIG hART ACKNOWLEDGES NGARLUMA, YINDJIBARNDI, BANJIMA, MARDUTHUNERA, GURUMA, NYIYAPARLI, KARIYARRA AND OTHER PILBARA ELDERS PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE.
