All In
♥️

This National Reconciliation Week, Tutti Arts Barossa acknowledge that we create on the unceded lands of the Peramangk people, and recognise the Barossa as a meeting place with deep cultural connections to the Ngadjuri people.

This National Reconciliation Week, the theme All In reminds us that reconciliation requires shared responsibility and action from all of us, every day.

As a multi-arts organisation, we’re committed to listening, learning, and contributing to meaningful change on the lands we work across.

Great news

Last Friday, Foundation Barossa Board director, Candice Scott, attended the Tanunda Primary School & Disability Unit school assembly and was presented with a cheque from their Youth Council Ambassadors.

Young people like this are the future of our community. 💚

These young Ambassadors are our future leaders, and we believe communities thrive when everyone has the opportunity to contribute. These students bring the energy, courage and authenticity that will inspire meaningful change for everyone.

By empowering young people to have a voice, we help build a more inclusive, connected and compassionate community for generations to come.

Thank you to everyone at Tanunda Primary School and Disability Unit.
