    Perth Festival acknowledges the Noongar people who continue to practise 
    their values, language, beliefs and knowledge on their kwobidak boodjar. 
    They remain the spiritual and cultural birdiyangara of this place and we 
    honour and respect their caretakers and custodians and the vital role 
    Noongar people play for our community and our Festival to flourish.
    Acknowledgment developed by Associate Artist Kylie Bracknell with support 
    from Perth Festival's Noongar Advisory Council (Vivienne Binyarn Hansen, 
    Mitchella Waljin Hutchins, Carol Innes, Barry McGuire, Richard Walley OAM &
    Roma Yibiyung Winmar)
    WARDAN
    The ocean.
    We saw them first.
    They came along the sea, beyond the horizon
    Moving upon the water, closer and closer.
    Big white sails and strange white men
    We saw them, thinking the spirits
    of our ancestors are returning.
    Our lives changed forever.
    Now we are here. Today. Together still.
    Wardan is where it all began for us.
    It is dangerous and powerful,
    a mysterious and spiritual place.

    WELCOMES
    HON. MARK MCGOWAN MLA
    PREMIER OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA
    Perth Festival has been a feature of our cultural life here in Western Australia 
    for nearly 70 years.
    In 2021, as one of the few such events to occur anywhere in the world, the 
    Festival brought wonder and joy to thousands at a time when our community 
    needed it most. More than 470,000 people attended Perth Festival 2021, 
    which gave local producers, venues and businesses a welcome economic 
    boost.
    The Festival promotes jobs, skills and community wellbeing, and it provides 
    an outstanding platform for expressing our unique identity and stories. The 
    State Government, on behalf of all Western Australians, is proud to support 
    the Festival through Principal Partner Lotterywest, Tourism WA and other 
    State agencies. 
    Perth Festival 2022 will see our city come alive once again with a diverse and 
    accessible program designed for audiences of all ages and backgrounds.
    I wish the Festival team well for their voyage ahead and encourage everyone 
    to explore the Perth Festival 2022 program. It promises to be a grand 
    celebration of who we are as Western Australians.
    PROF. AMIT CHAKMA
    VICE CHANCELLOR, THE UNIVERSITY OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA
    It is my privilege to welcome you to the program for the 70th annual Perth 
    Festival.
    The University of Western Australia is proud to be the founder of Australia’s 
    3
    most diverse, longest-running arts festival, as a pillar of our engagement with 
    the Western Australian community.
    Dedicated to excellence and inclusion, the Festival is testament to art’s power
    to reach across the generations and bring people together from all walks of 
    life. Our beautiful Crawley campus will host the ever-popular Lotterywest 
    Films at the Somerville auditorium, the sensational family show Patch’s 
    Lighthouse at Uni Theatres and the epic majesty of Indigenous artist Sonia 
    Kurarra, with the exhibition Ariel’s Song, at Lawrence Wilson Art Gallery.
    Perth Festival is a wonderful forum for us to share our collective creative 
    intelligence and achieve more together than we ever could on our own. And, 
    of course, it offers boundless possibilities for us to have much fun along the 
    way.
    I congratulate the Perth Festival team and hope you can join us for a Festival 
    season of wonder and delight.
    TIM UNGAR
    CHAIR, PERTH FESTIVAL
    Perth Festival is very fortunate to work with so many fantastic organisations 
    and individuals in bringing to life our celebration of people and place each 
    summer.
    The Festival stimulates social, cultural and economic vibrancy but can only do 
    this with the great support of our audiences, government and corporate 
    partners, donors, artists and the public.
    Beyond the many extraordinary events in venues around our city, our 
    partners also underpin the community engagement programs that truly fulfill 
    our mission to enrich life through art in WA.
