The Australian National Maritime Museum is proud to present Sunset Nasara.
Sunset Nasara is a one-day cultural exchange showcasing and celebrating Australian South Sea Islander traditions through stories, music, performance, art, food, and skill-sharing – it is where traditions come alive.
Visitors can participate in hands-on craft workshops, experience the flavours of the Pacific with free tastings, and join in dance workshops.
Experience the warmth and richness of Australian South Sea Islander culture and kinship with First Nations and the Pacific through a day of dynamic programming at the museum.
