Dusty Feet Mob
From the sand hills of Port Augusta to the bustling streets of Adelaide, Dusty Feet Mob's young Aboriginal performers, aged between six and thirty-one years, dance their way into the hearts and minds of their enraptured audiences, using the power of song and dance to tell stories of the Stolen Generation and help heal the pain of the past. Dusty Feet Mob are more than just an Aboriginal dance group. They are a community that nurtures strength, confidence and dignity. They are a community that builds connection to culture, community and country. A joyous and touching celebration of Aboriginal culture that allows both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people to grow in acceptance, understanding and empathy together.
