Blak & Bright First Nations Literary Festival acknowledges the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation as the traditional custodians of the sacred lands on which we work. We pay our respects to the people of the Kulin Nations and all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders, past present and future.

We recognise all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders as the first storytellers; and that knowledge transfer through storytelling is imbedded in the very DNA of this Country.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people should be aware that this website may contain images, voices or names of deceased persons in photographs, film, audio recordings or printed material.


2024 Yarn Bombers

June 2024

A compilation of all 2024 Yarn Bombers and their ‘bonus’ yarns performed across the festival.

At the beginning of many sessions, viewers were treated to three-minute “bonus” yarns from up-and-coming storytellers. Watch this compilation of all 2024 Yarn Bombers to see the future of Blak stories now.

Thank you to Jeanine Leane for holding a masterclass to prepare our deadly 2024 Yarn Bombers for their time to shine. You can read more about Jeanine here.
