We need to keep a strong Aboriginal voice in the media. We need to have the opportunity to share cultural knowledge with the wider community.

Umeewarra Media - keeping culture strong.

How will the funds be used?

The funds will go towards supporting the work of Umeewarra Media through radio programs that enable us to share and highlight the different cultures and language groups in our Aboriginal community, producing Umee TV and running great First Nation's music events like Umeewarra Downtown.

We need to be able to show that Aboriginal culture is as relevant today as it has always been. We break down barriers in our community and build pride in Aboriginal cultures. We promote true reconciliation through a better understanding.

Key areas of expenditure

Right now we are raising funds to support the Umeewarra Downtown Festival 2023. This amazing First Nations Live Music Festival in the heart of Port Augusta aims to bring the community together to celebrate our great talents and inspire the next generation.

This year, Umeewarra Downtown 2023 will include the induction of Russell Smith into the SA Hall of Fame. Russell grew up at Umeewarra Mission and is the lead singer of BROLGA who are headlining the festival. Russell calls Port Augusta home and will inspire the youth of Port Augusta by sharing this special event at the Festival.

Umeewarra Downtown will also include a Youth Arts Display and the Port Augusta Youth Percussion Club who will join BROLGA on the main stage to perform. Other acts include First Nations artists from Port Augusta and Adelaide and we believe this event is key to bringing our community together to be uplifted by the talents in the community.

Donating to this will help Umeewarra Media run this event, engage more artists and support our staff to cover the event via media on our radio shows, Umee TV and share to the world.

Beyond the festival Umeewarra Media are seeking donations to run more programs and employ Aborignal people to work in the media sharing important stories theough radio and online.

Now is such an important time to support the voice of Aboriginal people being broadcast loud and clear.

Umeewarra Media works on the land of the Barngarla people, we respect their cultural knowledge and language and recognise their deep grief for the loss of their land where Port Augusta has been built and our building now stands. We respect that they have a strong, ongoing connection to this land and I apologise for the destruction and hurt caused to them as a people since 1836.
