Fees Set for Welcomes to Country and Smoking Ceremonies
Communities to Determine Costs
Land Councils and community representatives are setting fees for Welcomes to Country and Smoking Ceremonies, ensuring that Traditional Owners and Custodians are fairly compensated for their cultural practices.
Respecting Cultural Protocols
The exact fees will vary depending on the community and the nature of the event. However, it is important to note that fees are not a barrier to experiencing these important cultural protocols. The aim is to ensure that Traditional Owners and Custodians are adequately supported and respected for sharing their knowledge and traditions.
Enhanced Storytelling
By including a Welcome to Country or Smoking Ceremony in your event, you not only show respect for the traditional owners of the land but also enhance the storytelling experience for your audience. These ceremonies provide a unique opportunity to connect with the local history and culture, fostering a sense of place and belonging.
