Organiser Scarlett Habanero recently had the pleasure of chatting with Aunty June of Yugambeh Language and Heritage Research Centre, also known as Yugambah Museum who has generously agreed to provide some fantastic kids art & craft activities at Chillogan Chilli & Rum Festival.
The Yugumbeh language people are traditional custodians of the country located in south-east Queensland and north-east New South Wales. Now known as Logan City, Gold Coast, Scenic Rim and Tweed City, these regions are particularly known for their scenic and fertile land. Importantly, our Yugumbeh language groups are linked by their ancestors who spoke one or more dialects our Yugambeh language. This way, our clans including: Kombumerri, Mununjali and Wangerriburra are united by this common linguistic heritage.
The Yugambeh Museum is situated at Cnr Plantation Rd & Martens Street BEENLEIGH QLD 4207
