NAIDOC 2025 Youth Poems Exhibition
Past Event
As part of NAIDOC Week 2025, the Geraldton Regional Library is honoured to present a unique poetry display, showcasing the powerful words of Nola Gregory.
Nola Gregory is a proud descendant of the Gija and Bardi peoples of the East and West Kimberley regions of Western Australia. A devoted poet since 1995, she draws strength and purpose from her writing, using poetry as a powerful medium to share cultural stories, personal truths, and emotional resilience.
Her work is crafted to move readers on a deeper level - to connect, to challenge, and to inspire. Nola holds the distinct honour of being the only Aboriginal poet to have her work read in both the Federal Parliament and the Western Australian State Parliament, a milestone that speaks to the reach and impact of her voice.
Her latest collection, And We the Next Generation, is a celebration of young Aboriginal people - their leadership, spirit, and unwavering strength in carrying culture and community forward.
