Secrets of Dawn: Reading and Reflection Space

After viewing the exhibition, visitors to Secrets of Dawn are invited to spend time in a dedicated Reflection Space to remember and honour the Coota Girls Survivors and all Stolen Generations Survivors.

Replications of Dawn Magazine issues featuring Coota Girls Survivors are available to read in the Reflection Space.

Viewer Discretion Advised

They respectfully caution First Nations viewers that Secrets of Dawn contains images and stories of deceased persons. This exhibition explores Stolen Generations history and Survivors' personal stories, which viewers may find distressing. Dawn Magazine contains deeply racist language and ideologies reflecting settler-colonial attitudes toward First Nations peoples.
