This month, the Shire of Moora is turning its attention to heritage; but not the kind you read in a textbook. The kind passed down through the stories of our elders, family and friends.

📅 September 5th: We welcome Peter Salmon to Moora, a 93-year-old Thiinma Elder and the last living speaker of his language. Alongside Rosie Sitorus, Peter brings his show Piyalbajarri to town — a story shaped by his Thiinma heritage and a life spent working pastoral stations across the Pilbara and Kimberley. This is truth telling in its purest form: a man finally getting to tell his own story, on his own terms.

📅 September 19th: The 115th Moora Show rolls in! Believe it or not, this tradition dates back to 1906, when a special train from Perth brought visitors out as a marked event in the calendar. Through wars, droughts and the Depression, our community has kept showing up to celebrate the land we work and love.

Two very different events. One shared idea: heritage stays alive because people keep showing up for it and keep sharing their stories, so they're never lost.

We hope you'll join us for both 💛
