Discover the story behind Wadawurrung Traditional Owner and artist Jenna Oldaker's artwork, and explore her special partnership with Sovereign Hill.

Gnarrwirring Ngitj (no-wor-ring nitch) means learning together in the Wadawurrung language. It reflects our commitment to learning from the histories, cultures, and voices that shape our communities.
For more than 65,000 years, First Nations peoples have cared for Country, sharing knowledge, culture, and stories that continue to enrich Australia today. We are more than keepers of history; we are a place of learning, exchange and connection. Through respectful engagement with First Nations peoples, we seek to deepen understanding of the past and help inspire a future built on respect, relationships, and opportunity.
By supporting Sovereign Hill, you help preserve a place where history is lived, not just told. Every contribution helps us care for our heritage site and continue the important work we do in conservation, education and storytelling.
