Arts & Culture

Byron Shire Council supports the region's creative and cultural industries so that the whole community can enjoy arts and cultural activity. Here are a few ways Brunswick Heads locals and visitors can experience some of the regions arts and culture.

Vision Walks - Bush Tucker Walks

The Australian bush is full of edible fruits, roots, nuts, seeds and leaves. For centuries Aboriginal people have gathered, hunted and harvested this bush tucker. The rest of us are only beginning to learn about the incredible natural and native food resources on our doorstep.

Join Delta Kay a local Arakwal woman, on a two-hour walk of discovery. As you walk Delta will teach you how to identify what’s good to eat and what’s not.

Finding bush tucker takes special knowledge that developed from living close to nature. Delta has lived on country a lot of her life, she is proud Arakwal custodian and is committed to working in genuine partnership with our local community to promote an awareness, understanding and mutual respect between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people.
