Join us at Wanneroo Regional Museum these summer holidays for a fun-filled experience centred around the theme of Stars and Storytelling and help celebrate Birak, the Noongar season of the young.

For many thousands of years, campfires have been a place where people gather to share stories and knowledge.

Visitors can explore, play and learn about the night sky and constellations and imagine what it would have been like living in Wanneroo before the lights were switched on in 1954!

Enjoy a variety of engaging crafts, participate in exciting scavenger hunts, and take part in free activities designed for all ages.

Follow in the steps of the Seven Sisters and experience the immersive nature of a songline in this multi-sensory digital installation. Songlines, or Dreaming tracks, map the routes of Ancestral beings as they travelled across Australia, creating the land and its people.

Walking through a Songline allows audiences of all ages to immerse themselves in a space where paintings come to life, stories are visualised, and ancient knowledge is shared in a striking and artistic way.

Accompanying the Walking through a Songline exhibition, is a series of Seven Sister story works on display, which were kindly loaned from the Kerry Stokes Collection, Janet Holmes á Court Collection and Gilbert George Collection.
