50 Years of Deadly

Our NAIDOC logo features a community gathering symbol by Wiradjuri artist Amy Kilby, created as a visual anchor for the 2026 campaign. Responding to a milestone that marks five decades of NAIDOC, the design reflects resilience, collective strength and momentum, honouring those who shaped the movement while looking forward to the next generation.

“Fifty Years of Deadly marks a milestone. It’s a tribute to the people who built this movement. the Elders who stood firm, the organisers who made space, the artists who turned resistance into expression, and the communities who keep showing up, year after year.” - NAIDOC Committee
