Rising from the Embers Festival
In celebration of National Reconciliation Week – The University of Newcastle and the Wollotuka Institute brings you the 2023 Rising from the Embers Festival, proudly sponsored by Hunter Local Land Service.
Our unique festival aims to increase community access and knowledge to local land and water management best practices.
By providing a platform for these interest groups, we are able to promote and create awareness around the ongoing environmental impacts in our region.
We hope to bring together like-minded individuals and local organisation who share a passion for environmental sustainability and innovation, land and water management and celebrating culture and community.
