Celebrate the commencement of NAIDOC Week 2024 with a Welcome to Country, followed by an unforgettable evening with Jim Moginie, a founding member of the legendary band Midnight Oil. Hear about Jim’s collaborations with First Nations Communities.
Jim Moginie will share stories and songs related to his time with the band, as he reflects on his personal journey detailed in his moving and inspiring book, The Silver River, a memoir of families lost and rediscovered.
Jim will be joined by Catherine McGregor AM, who will facilitate an audience Q&A, as they share their personal stories of searching for identity.
The Silver River will be available for purchase and can also be signed by Jim.
