From The Armidale Express
For young people in out-of-home care, turning 18-years-old is not always something to celebrate.
I would like to acknowledge the Nations of which we come from, live upon and create within. I’d like to acknowledge and pay our respects to my Elders past, present and future emerging. I’d also like to extend my gratitude for the gifts from Mother Earth, my Ancestors, our Creators and my communities. I am grateful for the knowledge and guidance I have had in my journey and for having the space to share through cultural storytelling and art. We therefore, would like to say GAWAYMBANHA ‘Welcome’ as you join myself and our collaborators at Leticia Anne Designs & Co.
