Monash students and staff from the Faculty of Education and the Department of Occupational Therapy, local children, and older adults from U3A and Rotary met with Indigenous artists and knowledge holders for four workshops at the Monash Peninsula Studio and McClelland Gallery. Monash students experienced creative project-based learning, as they learned about the value of Indigenous perspectives in their work, and how creative and community partnerships can be forged. They will take these experiences into their respective fields. The participants developed a new appreciation for people of different ages, cultures and experiences during this project. Stereotypes were challenged as they learned about Indigenous cultures, local plants, eco-dyeing, sun printing, and each other, while connections were made within and across generations.
