Celebrate the achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, businesses and entrepreneurs.

It is an opportunity for all Australians to learn about First Nations cultures and histories, and participate in celebrations of the oldest, continuous living cultures on earth.

You can support and get to know your local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and businesses through a variety of activities, services and events across Victoria.

Find a First Nations business
