As part of NAIDOC Week 2014, the NGV will celebrate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures with its first NGV Culture Camp for teens and a live(ly) performance by the SKIN Choir.
Held over four days, the NGV Culture Camp is a school holiday program which allows teens to explore Indigenous art, dance, theatre and music.

The program will take the following structure:
Tues 8 Jul: Music - SKIN Choir
Wed 9 Jul: Visual Art - Jonathan Jones
Thu 10 Jul: Theatre - Melodie Reynolds-Diarra
Fri 11 Jul: Dance - Nikki Ashby
Then! On Saturday 12 July, join the SKIN Choir for a special NAIDOC Week performance as they share their perspective on what it means to be Indigenous in modern Australia, with songs about cultural identity and living with mainstream stereotyping.
