A Smoking Ceremony has many purposes, it is often used before entering a sacred area to cleanse your spirit from things like negativity, and/or acknowledging ancestors and connecting to country. Depending on the purpose of ceremony can decide on the type of native leaves or bark used. . #sharingculture #oldestcultureonearth #ancientknowledge #aboriginal #aboriginalexperiences #girrigirra #onemob

Tim is a Ngiyampaa/Wiraduri man who has a strong connection to his country and culture. The love of this culture, the land and his ancestors is reflected through his art.
Tim’s handcrafted indigenous tools and artefacts (for sale) are created from sustainably harvested native Australia hardwoods such as mulga, iron bark and wattle - include boomerangs, clapsticks, nulla nullas, coolamons, shields and didgeridoos.
Each creation has it's own knowledge and story to tell.
This is going to be an Amazing event!❤️👣 All Welcome!
