Come along to a community-run screening of the 'Takayna - The Heart of Lutruwita' film in Halls Gap.
Through the power of personal stories, be taken on a journey to the vast and threatened landscapes of Australia’s largest temperate rainforest in the northwest of Lutruwita / Tasmania. This area, known as Takayna, is one of the last wild places on Earth.
‘Takayna - The Heart of Lutruwita’ is an inspiring and hopeful film about the battle to defend Takayna from mining and logging. From frontline activists to Tasmanian Aboriginal community members, scientists and musicians, these people are standing up for its protection, and you can join them too.
This screening is in partnership with Halls Gap Landcare and will be hosted by local volunteers from Bob Brown Foundation.
50% of funds raised will be provided to Halls Gap Landcare to support nature-led community resilience activities and local bushfire recovery following the December 2024 and January 2025 (and ongoing) Grampians bushfires that impacted wildlife and nature, including Grampians (Gariwerd) National Park.
Brought to you by Bob Brown Foundation. Doors open at 6.30 pm for a 7 pm start. Suitable for all ages.
