Shag Bay: A Walk Through Time

As part of the Australian Heritage Festival Tasmania Program come for a walk through Shag Bay, an area rich in indigenous and colonial history hidden on the edge of suburbia.  Participants will be guided through this beautiful and mysterious trail, and with the help of Aboriginal storyteller Teangi Brown, we will explore the different ways that Indigenous and European occupation impacted the natural environment. From shell middens to exploding bone mills, this is a fascinating site with a story to tell.

Entry charge includes a packed lunch.
