Acknowledgment of country

Polyglot acknowledges that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which we live and create, and we pay our respects to Elders past and present. For more than 65,000 years, children and families have created and played here, and we are grateful to make our art on this country too.

Awesome Built This City!

I can’t remember whether it was 2005 or 2006 but I vividly remember Angela and I finding Polyglot’s We Built This City in Perth’s CBD with our two sons (then around 7 and 9) while we were living in WA. It was a revelation about how pure children’s play could be a work of art. I had so much fun… and I think the boys did too. Now it’s more than 10 years later, we’re back in Melbourne, I’m Polyglot’s Chair, and Alec and Hugo have both been Polyglot volunteers on several occasions!
