A Gala Night of Storytelling: Tara June Winch

On Saturday February 13, on the anniversary of the Federal Government’s apology to the Stolen Generations, the Wheeler Centre presented a night of celebration and reflection, sharing the common and different experiences that define our past and our present.

Twelve of Australia’s best writers came together at Melbourne Town Hall for an intimate night of storytelling, each reflecting on those tales that have been handed down to them through the generations, each giving voice to an inheritance of wisdom, of understanding, of identity.

This is Tara June Winch’s story.
