Treaty Day Out 2023: celebrating First Nations artists and supporting Treaty in Victoria

Photo journal

Article

We’re excited to support Treaty Day Out in Naarm/Melbourne on Saturday 3 June. An amazing line up including Dan Sultan, Thelma Plum, Jessica Mauboy and Yothu Yindi will raise awareness for the First Peoples’ Assembly of Victoria’s work to achieve Treaty.

The First Peoples’ Assembly of Victoria have organised Treaty Day Out to celebrate the final day of voting in the upcoming Assembly Elections. In these elections, the First Nations community in Victoria will choose the representatives who will negotiate a historic Treaty with the Victorian Government.

Treaty is the opportunity to make sure First Nations people will always have the freedom and power to make the decisions that affect their communities, their culture and their Country. Every vote counts and the Assembly invites all First Peoples in or from Victoria to vote.

Who is the First Peoples’ Assembly of Victoria?

The First Peoples’ Assembly of Victoria is the independent and democratically elected body to represent Traditional Owners of Country and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in Victoria.

What is Treaty?

Treaty is our shared opportunity to tackle the racist legacies of invasion and create a better future together. From 13 May to 3 June the Assembly is holding its Elections to choose the people who will negotiate the state-wide Treaty with the Victorian Government.

Treaty Day Out

Treaty Day Out is a festival organised by the First Peoples’ Assembly of Victoria to raise awareness and support for the journey towards Treaty in Victoria. Treaty Day Out Naarm will celebrate the final day of voting in the Assembly Elections, on Saturday 3 June. The first Treaty Day Out was first held in Shepparton in February 2022, and was quickly followed by another successful festival in Bendigo in October of the same year.
