Victorian Aboriginal tourism experiences are transforming to enable visitors to learn about Victorian Aboriginal culture through eating, exploring, shopping and learning.
Many of these activities can be experienced from the comfort of your home. All you need is an internet connection.
Explore
Melbourne's Aboriginal cultural institution, The Koorie Heritage Trust, brings you the stories of Melbourne and Victoria's Aboriginal histories told by the Trust's knowledgeable guides, as well as essays, stories and interviews with members of Victoria's Indigenous communities – all available for exploring online. Don't miss the virtual tour of the Trust's 'Affirmation' exhibition, which showcases the work of Victoria's multi-disciplinary Aboriginal photographers.
Showing at the National Gallery of Victoria, 'Marking Time' is an exhibition that explores and celebrates Indigenous art from across Australia. From the more traditional forms and mediums of bark and rock through to canvas and street art, a virtual tour of the exhibition leads you through the incredible range, style and diversity of Indigenous art.
Take a journey through the First Peoples exhibition at Melbourne Museum. It's one of the most comprehensive and cutting-edge showcases of Indigenous culture ever held in Australia. Experience the exhibition at home through the First Peoples virtual tour.
Eat
Explore native ingredients, foods and recipes online with Mabu Mabu's chef and owner Nornie Bero. Purchase a recipe kit from the website to follow Nornie's own special recipes at home in the kitchen. Try your hand at Torres Strait Islander-style damper, which features delicious native wattleseed and saltbush.
Shop
Geelong's Narana Aboriginal Cultural Centre is a great stop for an online shop – peruse household items through to clothes and beauty products. Don't miss filling your cart at the Koorie Heritage Trust online shop, too.
