About The Project
Aboriginal elder Uncle Leonard Clarke has a vision, a vision that is Ignited by the ongoing injustices against Aboriginal nations, the memory of his late daughter, and a strong deep-seated desire to keep the Indigenous youth out of incarceration. His vision is for the land on which he grew up on, to host a music and performance venue with a cultural and life education centre. This vision is to become the foundation for the Shara Clarke Cultural and Education Centre.
Embedded on the traditional lands of the Kirrae Whurrong people of the Gunditjmara nation, lies our proposal for The Shara Clarke Cultural and Educational Centre. Inspired by the strong symbiotic relationship between the first nations’ people and their connection to country, the Shara Clarke Cultural and Education Centre attempts to extend the country and connection between its inhabitants and their ancestor lands. The design intends to help facilitate a strong bond and relationship between the land, environment, and cultural knowledge for all that utilise the centre.
