Your year of theatre starts here!
Get ready for an unforgettable experience: the annual Yirra Yaakin Family Picnic, a vibrant celebration of culture and local community.
Join us as we bask in a warm boonaroo sunset at Wandarguttagurrup, surrounded by the most talented Aboriginal theatre artists from WA. This is how we love to kick off the year with our cherished Subiaco residents and those from WA’s vibrant arts scene.
Enjoy the live music and dance, indulge in delicious samples of yonga stew and ice-cream prepared by Gather Foods, and visit a stunning exhibition.
This year the Picnic coincides with the opening of the Middar Koora ba ye exhibition in partnership with the Perth Festival.
