This artwork was originally created in response to the theme of Keep the Fire Burning! Blak, Loud and Proud and is appropriate for anyone to wear. The artist's unique vision is a testament to the diversity of ways we celebrate Culture, Identity and Knowledge.

These soft, breathable polo shirts are made from sustainably grown bamboo and have a high sun protection factor of UPF50+. A more subtle take on our classic polo, they feature contrast panels running down the sides and inner collar. Available in fitted and unisex styles that showcase the vibrant First Nations artwork created especially for the 2024 theme.

Our Future, Together - NAIDOC 2024

When I was creating this artwork for NAIDOC 2024, I had a very clear vision of what I wanted the story to be for the piece. The theme 'Keep the Fire Burning! Blak, Loud and Proud' means a lot of different things to different people. For me, I see this as a very strong and powerful theme to highlight that we (Indigenous people) need to be strong, loud and proud, now more than ever. We need to keep the conversation going, about not only our past, but our future. I believe that everyone has a role to play to achieve true Reconciliation.

The artwork tells a story about the past, present and the future. It shows three journey lines and three full meeting places, one for each of those times. We often get carried away and forget what our goal is. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are strong and powerful and I hope that this theme allows them to feel that, if they were not already. For non-Indigenous people, I hope that they can wear this artwork to show their support and respect for my people.

Will leave the warehouse next business day* subject to seasonal fluctuation.
