NAIDOC Portraits – For Our Elders (Year 7 - Year 10)

Celebrate NAIDOC with First Nations portraiture during a live National Portrait Gallery program. Students celebrate the contributions of First Nations Elders in the National Portrait Gallery collection. In association with NAIDOC Portraits are used to encourage engagement in students, to build the knowledge and skills to look, respond and create. This program will highlight the achievements of Elders, by telling the stories of their lives. We will examine what we notice about who they are – their identity through the visual communications of art.
