Enjoy a cultural yarn and planetarium show in the Science Space at the Innovation Campus, Wollongong.

The cultural yarn will be led by Dr Crystal Arnold, a Gundungurra woman and academic based in the School of Social Sciences, and Peter Hewitt, a Jerrinja Yuin man and academic in Aboriginal Education.

Together we'll explore, through story and science, how Gurawul’s journey speaks to migration, birthing, and oneness, while Buru’s grounded movement reveals knowledge of ecology, balance, and responsibility. This yarn invites us to remember that science is ancient; it has always been here, carried in songlines, in movement, and in Country.

There will also be a screening of a specially designed planetarium show that will take you across different locations in Australia to showcase Indigenous heritage and the role of Indigenous communities and scientists in future-proofing Australia’s biodiversity.  

During an intermission with food provided, you can explore and enjoy the Science Space lower-level exhibits.
