This Spring, a twirl of us gathered at Fitzroy Gardens near Olga Cohn’s fairy tree and exchanged tales of many cultural origins, from Aboriginal to Celtic, Persian and Italian. More in Jackie Kerin’s report. A selection of her photos is below, too, starting with Cindy-Lee Harper, who traces her indigenous heritage to the Pyemarriner people.
