Overview

Ours is an ancient land. A continent that is powerful, interconnected, life-giving and ever-changing. It is a land crisscrossed by grand songlines, with an incredible history and a boundless future.

There's a place where you can take your time to hear these stories; to listen to the land. There you'll discover the most wonderful tales of power, connection, life and change.

And when you do, you can't help but be left in awe.

Come Listen to the Land at the Great Southern Land Gallery.
