Sydney Town Hall display runs from 5 July to 19 July

NAIDOC Week projections will light Sydney Town Hall from 6pm on Sunday 5 July. The nightly display runs until Sunday 19 July.

Each night, the projections stay on the building from 6pm to midnight. Sydney Town Hall hosts the installation in the city centre.

Studio Gilay created the bold artworks for the event. Abstract animation, symbolism and First Nations design transform the landmark.

Across the facade, the work highlights key moments in history. It also reimagines Sydney Town Hall as a living timeline of culture, resilience and achievement.

The projection series is titled 50 Years of Deadly. Isaiah Stewart wrote and directed the work.

Stewart is a Kuku Yalanji and Wemba Wemba man living on Gadigal land. His work opens NAIDOC Week in Sydney on Sunday 5 July.

NAIDOC Week gives Australians a chance to learn about First Nations cultures and histories. It also invites people to join celebrations of the oldest, continuous living cultures on earth.

Meanwhile, the projections use one of Sydney’s best-known civic buildings as a canvas. That central location puts First Nations history and design on public display each night.

The listing sets the opening date as Sunday 5 July and the venue as Sydney Town Hall. It also confirms the nightly hours of 6pm to midnight through Sunday 19 July.

During the two-week run, residents and visitors can see the installation after dark on multiple nights. As a result, people have a clear viewing window from early evening to midnight.
