Cultural Centre
Home Valley Station is committed to National Tourism Certification through the "Respecting Our Culture Tourism Certification Program". The
current business development activities are concentrated on achieving ROC Certification, ensuring it observes Indigenous cultural protocols,
supports the preservation of Indigenous cultural integrity and authenticity, sustainable environmental practices and the highest professional
tourism business practices. Working with the ROC Program criteria, Home Valley Station has created a Healing Garden, a Cultural Centre and a
Gallery within the Homestead facilities.
It is here guests to Home Valley Station, Durack River Station and Karunjie Station can learn more about the traditional owners attached to
these Stations, or better said, to their "country" - the Balanggarra people and the Nyaliga people, as well as discovering more about the
recent involvement by the Australian Federal Government's Indigenous Land Corporation.
A central hub designed for education, a place to reflect on the past 220 years of European settlement and the effects this has had on the Australian Aborigine. We ask all visitors to drop by, have a look at the literature, the images, purchase an authentic souvenir and write their story or comment in our "Respecting Our Culture" visitor's diary.
The Cultural Centre will provide visitors a chance to purchase local indigenous craft and artwork.
