Dhuluny, a Wiradyuri word meaning “truth, rightness,” or “gospel,” and means rectitude, that which is direct, straight, acting, living.
The events held throughout Dhuluny provide a vital opportunity to share and understand the true history of our country while celebrating the resilience of the Wiradyuri Nation. Central to Dhuluny is the preservation of culture and truth-telling.
The week-long event begins on Sunday August 11 with a Welcome to Country and Smoking Ceremony. Throughout the week there will be many events and cultural activities taking place from weaving workshops, tool and string making workshops, various panel discussions, films, plays, art markets and much more.
The events happening throughout Dhuluny offers a unique opportunity to engage with and understand the true history, while celebrating the enduring spirit and strength of the Wiradyuri Nation.
NITV Radio spoke with Jade Flynn Dhuluny coordinator from the Wiradyuri Traditional Owners Central West Aboriginal Corporation to discuss the event.
