Mapuche Cultural Exchange
Join us at Liverpool Regional Museum to discover Mapuche culture.
This program is our first school holiday program linked to the current exhibition Exilio (Exiled) Chile to South-West Sydney and is suitable for all ages.
The Mapuche (mapu ‘land’ che ‘people’) are the largest Indigenous group in Chile who have strongly retained their culture, language, customs and identity. Members of the local Mapuche community will demonstrate traditional instruments and music, dance, painting and food.
