First Nations Sensory Tour
Step into Queensland Museum Kurilpa's Discovery Centre for a multi-sensory journey into Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander tools from nature!
Guided by Erin Healey, First Nations Project Officer, Engagement, this immersive experience invites visitors to slow down, look closer and explore through touch, sound and storytelling.
Learn how Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have long used materials from the natural world to create practical and sustainable tools. Get hands-on with objects made from stone, seeds, fibres and more, and explore how knowledge of Country informs their making and use. Engage your senses as you encounter different objects, listen to their stories, and learn how tools are connected to culture, Country and everyday life.
Perfect for curious minds of all ages, this sensory tour encourages inquiry, respect, and connection to the First Nations culture, history and knowledge.
