One of the first project activities was for the project team Elder Maureen Campbell and grandkids, Kyra, Reanna and Ian, and nephew, Dwight to participate in a First Nations Media archiving workshop. In this workshop they learned about the FNMA Archive Resources Toolkit https://toolkit.firstnationsmedia.org.au and the Mukurtu platform for content management and for community access to project materials. During the workshop the team began to create a Mukurtu site, which they are now beginning to populate. At this stage the site is not public but you can learn more about mukurtu at https://mukurtu.org/support/what-is-mukurtu.

This arts-based project has seen the language community engage in a number of workshops during 2021 with the Batchelor Institute Art Department. These workshops are open to young and old alike.
