Hundreds of people have shared stories, ideas, conversations, cake, gulab jamun, pineapple and lemon squash along the streets of Perth. "Jane’s Walks are free, locally organised walking tours, in which people get together to explore, talk about and celebrate their neighbourhoods. Where more traditional tours are a bit like walking lectures, a Jane’s Walk is more of a walking conversation. Leaders
share their knowledge, but also encourage discussion and participation among the walkers. A Jane’s Walk can focus on almost any aspect of a neighbourhood, and on almost any topic you can think of. Walks can be serious or funny, informative or exploratory; they can look at the history of a place, or at what’s happening there right now. Anyone can lead a walk -- because everyone is an expert on the place where they live!" from janeswalk.org
In 2017, Jane's Walk took place across six continents, 36 countries, 215 cities. There were over 1000 walks! Walk with us in Perth this May 5th, 6th and 7th and you are walking with thousands of people around the world. Ngaala Kaaditj, Whadjuk Nyoongar Moort, keyen kaadak nidja boodja. We acknowledge the Whadjuk Nyoongar people as the original custodians of this land. And we pay our respects to their elders past, present and future.
