Indigenous Mural
People First by Christine Slabb, Bundjalung Artist
People travel from near and far, the eagerness builds as lines start to form outside the stadium. The anticipation of the crowd grows as they find their way through the stands to their seats. The atmosphere is captivating. A community of people gathered as one, in a place that values ‘people first’.
