Koorie Heritage Trust reviews
8We came here for a Heritage walk - very interesting tour and extremely insightful into the culture, beliefs and ways of life of aboriginal peoples. The gallery is very nice and gives an opportunity to local artists to exhibit. Really recommend it!
Attended a training session recently and learned so much about the indigenous cultures and heritage of Australia. Very informative. The session delivery lead was very good and open to questions.
A good place to go if you want to know more about the indigenous people of the area, the Koorie. There is a 1 hour tour that takes you around the local area and shows you artefacts used by the Koorie. The guide was knowledgeable and very passionate about the subject.
Samantha Thomas walked us through the journey narrative of her culture, which is over 80,000 years of continuous history evolving. Highly recommended
I didn't know this beautiful place existed! Loved all the Aboriginal history, materials and handicrafts.
Was lucky enough to have the incredible Terri teach our cultural awareness training for work. It was inspiring seeing how much knowledge she had and how passionate she was to share it with our group. If only the lecturers at Uni that taught me so little about Indigenous culture had even just a spec of Terri’s knowledge and enthusiasm; it would’ve made all the difference. Excited to learn more about her beautiful culture.
Also such a great centre, I never realised it was freely accessible to the public until today. Everyone was extremely hospitable and welcoming.
Can’t wait to return in future, thanks:)
I very rarely leave negative reviews at all, but this museum is quite bad, at least went i went to see it. The permanent exhibition was closed. No audio guide or personal guide when I visited. Very few pieces on display. What was on display was uninteresting. The NGV right next door has a much more extensive, more interesting collection. I apologize for the negative review. Everyone who worked at the museum was very kind to me.
