Port Macquarie's Bicentenary Event Program April 2021

10 - 18 APRIL 2021

Port Macquarie’s Bicentenary event

COME EXPLORE OUR HISTORY, OUR PLACE AND OUR STORIES.

The Together as One Aboriginal Sculpture tells the story of a significant historic event and holds meaning to the Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal communities. It depicts the heroic and sharing nature of Aboriginal people.

This event occurred 189 years ago, on the 9th December 1827 and is the first recorded rescue in Australia.

This translation is supported by Muurrbay Aboriginal Language and Cultural Cooperative and the Local Gathang Language Group Djuyalgu Wakulda.

Translation-Rescue of 7 sailors from the Alligator by 7 Aboriginal men

Guri Wakul Gagil - Together As One Alligator bimay wuunala waa ngarrganda maruwuy marala Dunganggu waa ngaluwiganggu bunyila maruwuy gaabil wayibala manday gurrwaga djukalda.

In the morning after the Alligator had sailed and the pilot had just landed in the inner harbour, a tremendous wave upset the boat throwing the crew of 7 into the surge.

Gurrwadiyn djukaldiyn wayibala ganambali maragi gurrwaga.

The sea ran so high that no European would venture to assist them.

Guri manday garrundjiyn gurrwaga djukalda waa burrugila maruwuygu.

Seven Aborigines coming up dashed into the surge and succeeded in gaining the boat.

Barra wayibalabiyn marrala bunagu waa wakul wayibala naray dhati.

They brought them safe on shore, one nearly exhausted.

Guri manday dhanbaan.gang wuyi.ga barayn.ga.

Nothing could exceed the bravery and humanity with which these poor blacks acted on this occasion.

Gabagu ngukala bitjan garra djagil gurigu.

As a small reward I ordered some provisions with a glass of ‘grog’.

Maathang Darling ngukala mital dharrawiralbiyn gurubiyn barranaya.

Governor Darling offered a medal to be struck for each of them and blankets and trousers supplied.

Bicentenary Program 2021 marks the 200th anniversary since the establishment of Port Macquarie as a penal settlement.

Council acknowledges that this caused suffering and displacement for the traditional owners, the Birpai people. Our region’s history is as fascinating as it is diverse, spanning well beyond the 200 years, with our culture formed by our traditional owners of the land, the Birpai people, as well as early British settlers and multi-ethnic migration.

Join us in a wide range of activities designed to reflect on our past, celebrate our present, and look forward to an inclusive and positive future. To walk our place and discover the stories that weave together to make Port Macquarie-Hastings the region it was, it is, and will be.

IN THIS PROGRAM Together as One and Acknowledgement of Country

mayor’s message It gives me great pleasure to welcome you, on behalf of Port MacquarieHastings Council, to our Bicentenary Program.

We are truly blessed to live in a beautiful region, enriched with such diverse history and powerful stories. I hope that our Bicentenary gives you the opportunity to come together with your community, and deepen your understanding of what makes the Port Macquarie-Hastings region as special as it is.

Each of us has a unique story to share, and our program encourages you to exchange your experiences and customs with your neighbours.

There’s plenty to learn from the enlightening cultural exhibitions, the exciting community-led events, and the many other activities throughout the week. A heartfelt thank you to our Bicentenary Working Group, who assisted Council Staff in making this event happen. Take this opportunity to discover new and unexpected pockets of our culture, heritage, nature, and our tastes.

I hope you enjoy discovering all that our stunning region has to offer, and that you leave with a new perspective on our community’s history, and the story of us all.

From Prison to Paradise A (Very) Brief Timeline of European Settlement in Port Macquarie The Birpai people are the traditional custodians of our local country, and have been for thousands of years. The following timeline only acknowledges some of the key dates & events from a European settlement perspective.

1818

John Oxley sights the Hastings area and names Port Macquarie. Area is subsequently designated to be a penal colony.

1821

First ships, the Lady Nelson, the Mermaid and the Prince Regent, arrive carrying soldiers and convicts. Population: 102 males, including 59 convicts

1823

The Government considers Port Macquarie an excellent place for free settlement due to its climate and distance from Sydney

1825

Port Macquarie deemed ineffective as a penal settlement (partly because the prisoners kept escaping!)

1826-1828

St Thomas Church of England completed (built by convict labour with original cedar pew boxes still standing).

1830

Port Macquarie was proclaimed open to free settlement

1836-1845

An influx of free settlers. The town consists of 41 brick & 25 wooden houses, a Female factory, Gaol, & Prisoners barracks.

1846

Last convict establishment is closed

1862

Commercial vineyard at Douglas Vale established & Asylum opened in convict barracks

1869

New court house constructed (now the Historic Court House on Clarence St)

1879

Tacking Point Lighthouse erected

1887

New Royal Hotel opens (still standing on Town Green)

1937

Ritz Theatre Opened (now Majestic Theatre on Clarence St)

1955

Port Macquarie Airport opened

1957

First motel opens in Port

1969

First high rise building in Port

1980

Population: Town 13,495, Hastings 11,807 (source: ABS Census)

2021

Our once sleepy holiday town is now a thriving regional city (and with a population approaching 90,000, is one of the fastest growing regional areas in Australia).

We’re also one of Australia’s favourite holiday towns, so from a European settlement perspective, it really has been from ‘Prison to Paradise’!

WAKULDA

WEAVING OUR STORIES AS ONE

Over the last 18 months, the Port Macquarie-Hastings local government area, like most regional destinations in NSW, has felt the effects of devastating drought, bushfires and now COVID-19. In 2020, Council secured funding for a number of projects to support local tourism and hospitality jobs, stimulate our economy and attract visitation to our region.

Acknowledgement of support as an identified COVID Recovery Project. Funded by the Australian Government under the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program and Regional Tourism Bushfire Recovery grants program.

8

The centerpiece of our Bicentenary event is Wakulda, an immersive, sound and light projection installation onto the Port Macquarie Historic Courthouse.

This 10-minute production will envelop the audience, telling the important stories that make up the rich history of Port Macquarie from our First Nations people right through to the current day of the Bicentenary of European settlement in April 2021.

Stakeholders from a wide variety of backgrounds and groups were consulted in the development and creation of this project, including First Nations cultural consultants, artists and performers. The projection will be launched on 10 April and will continue to run nightly beyond the event period as a legacy project that will be a key new cultural tourism attraction in the heart of our CBD Cultural Precinct.

NIGHTLY PROGRAM

10-18 April, 6pm-9pm

Come and experience the latest attraction for Port Macquarie first hand.

Between 6.00pm and 9.00pm each evening you can view a free screening of the Wakulda projection on the façade of the Port Macquarie Historic Courthouse on Clarence Street.

A number of key heritage sites will open their doors each evening. While you’re at the Courthouse for Wakulda, head inside to discover its unique history, and view an exhibition by local artist Leanne Prussing. Drop into the Glasshouse to view themed exhibitions, then grab something for dinner and wander along the Town Green promenade to watch visiting boats on the river. Enjoy some local musical talent playing from Little Shack. Visit the fascinating Port Macquarie Museum which is also keeping its doors open till late, as well as the Maritime Museum Pilot Boat Shed.

Port Macquarie 200 Exhibition 27 February - 18 April Mezzanine Gallery Port Macquarie 200 profiles the contributions of seven artists who chose Port Macquarie as their subject during the course of two centuries.
