KALACC 2017 Strong Culture

Our Culture

Added by PAKAM

Description The KALACC Festival is a three day program that features traditional cultural knowledge and history through song and dance. The Regional cultural festival celebrates Kimberley Aboriginal dance, art, politics and culture, with traditional cultural performance of 30 language groups in the Kimberley.

With the Australia Council’s support, the 2014 festival will run a cultural knowledge transfer through youth programs, visual arts, men’s and women’s business, and dance and song from Kimberley communities. The festival is free for Kimberley Aboriginal people, with other festival attendees paying to increase revenue and share culture.

The calibre of performers is reflected by Indigenous groups participating in the event, such as internationally renowned Bardi and Karajarri Dancers. The festival continues to be an integral part of the regional fabric, promoting the cultural diversity and linkages of land, law, culture and language.
