Cairns Indigenous Art Fair asks you 'Pay Attention'
In the heart of Cairns' Botanic Gardens, where World War II oil tanks rise amid lush rainforest, the Cairns Indigenous Art Fair (CAIF) returns to its birthplace this July with the powerful theme Pay Attention.
CIAF curator Bruce Johnson McLean explains why this year's fair feels like a homecoming and how artist Tony Albert has shaped his curatorial vision.
Then Juanita Page, a proud Goreng Goreng and South Sea Islander woman breaking barriers in Australian menswear demonstrates why she embodies this year's NAIDOC Week theme: The Next Generation.
Plus for Word Up, Stuart Joel Nugget returns to share the Jingili word for "old man."
