This week Victorian Aboriginal Community Leaders welcomed our International First Nations and Pacifica Sista’s to Narrm for the incredible staunch @women_deliver conference2026! Ngun godjin to our Sista’s @G_ &SK for visiting us in our @yarnstrongsista City Store! Yarn Strong Sista had the privilege to be part of the @women_deliver Cultural Market and we had amazing yarns with women from all around the World! Sharing Victorian Aboriginal Culture, while connecting more intimately with individual delegates who shared their story with us. Wow! This gathering was a fantastic start to this powerful International meeting!

Uncle Mick Harding @ngargawarendj has sent this through this morning. The message stick for the community is ready. While message sticks are carried and shared between mobs, this one is for everyone who walks with us. A place to burn your message and your call for change. This stick will carry the collective voice of the people calling for a national truth telling process, led by First Peoples, to be placed in the hands of @albomp . Images 2–3 show messages burned on last year’s Walk For Truth.

They say never meet your idols… Well my experience was magic and unforgettable ♥️ Yesterday I got to hand deliver an artwork that Ash Barty had commissioned for someone special in her life. Over the last few weeks I’ve had the privilege and pleasure creating a piece I know is treasured by the recipient. Ash and I sat and had a chat, she is incredibly genuine, and despite being a huge fan and a bit awestruck if I’m honest, we chatted like old friends. She also very graciously signed some books that I will take on my school incursions. The whole experience has been wonderful and I’m extremely grateful. Thanks again @ashbarty I’d also love to thank Jules for squeezing me in to get rid of my sparkles, my dear friends who helped put together some gifts for Ash’s little people, super talented Phill who worked after hours to get the artwork photographed, I am indeed a very lucky lady to have the best people in my life ♥️ @virgophillip @petecromer @nurtureinnature @ngargawarendj @collinswarrnambool @littleyellowowl Thanks to the galleries and stores who continue to support my arts practice @myntgallery @sorrentocontemporary @mitcheltongallery @glyphgalleryportfairy @murranhub @yungarragallery @artist_lane @hallmark @awe_and_wonder_resources @thewarrnamboolartgallery @qvwc_shop

Absolutely spoiled!!! Last year when I was teaching at Worawa, I was gifted a piece of Mistletoe by the gorgeous @danny.wilcox.3781 during a tour of the historic places on the college land. I immediately knew who I needed to create a truly special Artefact for me, which will be passed to my boys eventually Thanks you Uncle (Funcle) Mick Harding @ngargawarendj for creating this unique, priceless, beautiful and sentimental boondi for me. I will treasure it always and look forward to showing all the kids & big people I work with.
