The Tamworth Pioneers Portrait program is made up of two phases; first a Leadership development program and second, a project to honour a community contributor or pioneer with a speaking event and community collaboration on an artwork.
WE ACKNOWLEDGE THE KAMILAROI PEOPLE AS THE TRADITIONAL CUSTODIANS OF THE LAND ON WHICH WE WORK AND LIVE. WE RECOGNISE THE STRENGTH, RESILIENCE AND CAPACITY OF OUR ABORIGINAL COMMUNITY. WE HAVE THE UTMOST RESPECT FOR THE ELDERS PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE. WE ASPIRE TO JOIN EQUALLY WITH OUR INDIGENOUS BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN WORKING TO CREATE A HEALTHY AND PRODUCTIVE ENVIRONMENT FOR THE WHOLE OF OUR COMMUNITY.
