JB Indigenous Festival 2015

In recognition with the United Nations’ International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples, the JB Indigenous Festival is the first ever festival in the city to shed light on the lifestyle of indigenous tribes and culture of Malaysia and Australia. Over the span of 14 eventful days, the festival will feature exhibitions, performances and different art forms by various indigenous tribes in both countries. This includes the Mah Meri Tribe from Selangor, indigenous artist Nikeema Williams, and Djabuguy/Yirrgay tribesman, Bernard Lee Singleton who carries many stories and customs from his homelands in the coastal rainforests of Cairns, just to name a few.
