As Nature Festival’s Cultural Ambassador, Narungga artist and researcher Brad Darkson brings deep knowledge of Sea Country and cultural revival, exploring FLOW through stories of water, connection, and care for marine environments for Nature Festival 2025.
As part of his role with Nature Festival, Brad has designed this long lunch to celebrate and talk about caring for Sea Country over a shared meal, by private invitation.
Hosted at Yitpi Yartapuultiku in Port Adelaide, this intimate long lunch brings together community leaders, government representatives, and scientists around a shared table of food that tells stories of Sea Country. Co-hosted by Brad Darkson, the gathering is designed to foster honest conversation, relationship-building, and knowledge-sharing across cultures and sectors. With a focus on listening and big-picture thinking, the lunch will provide a space to consider the challenges facing Sea Country and explore new pathways for collaboration and care.
