Awaken murrup. Awaken the spirit.

Where Indigenous knowledges breathe, gather and rise.
Held on Boonwurrung Country, Kindred People is a festival, an open invitation to listen, learn and come together, guided by respect and shared spirit.

Program dropping 17 June.

The Boonwurrung concept kummargi yulendj gadhaba (knowledge rising up together) sits at the heart of Kindred People. The festival program presents Indigenous‑led artistic work across diverse forms, shaped through moments of exchange, reflection and creative practice.
Kindred People is an opportunity to slow down, listen deeply and be present.
