DATES & TIMES
ABOUT OUR WA STORIES PROJECT
We are uncovering hidden stories and histories from underrepresented groups that live and have lived in WA, and to make them available to the wider public in the lead-up to the state’s Bicentennial in 2029 and beyond. The results of this project will inform future government funding to support projects that focus on WA storytelling and truth-telling, produced by arts organisations in WA.
