WARAMI
Warami brings together a program of events and activities honouring traditional and contemporary First Nations culture in the City of Parramatta.
Warami (pronounced Wuh-rah-mee) is a Dharug word meaning ‘good to see you’. Calling Parramatta home for over 60,000 years, Warami recognises the Burramattagal people’s connection to the land and community.
In 2024, our Warami program included films and a musical theatre production at Riverside Theatres, workshops at PHIVE and the Burramatta NAIDOC festival in Parramatta Park.
