Project Scope: A multi-sensory indoor and outdoor interpretive scheme for the new History & Interpretation Centre at this World Heritage listed site.

Zoe Rimmer
“Our approach to this project was to create an interpretive conduit between the past, the present and forward into the future. Creating connections between people and place, we used the opportunity of a distinctly female space to communicate the many histories of the site.”
Theresa Sainty
“For the first time, the Aboriginal stories associated with this place have been brought to life through collaboration with the Pakana community.”
