The Orange Regional Conservatorium acknowledges the Wiradjuri as traditional custodians of the land on which the Conservatorium stands and honours our First Nations by fostering a shared sense of belonging for all Australians.
We acknowledge that our music-making takes place on ancient lands, where First Nations artists have sung, danced and told stories for thousands of generations. We believe in the power of music to share truth, and we understand our responsibility to listen.
In this spirit, the ORC Management Committee embrace the Uluru Statement from the Heart and its invitation for all Australians to walk together.
