Don College staff took part in the mapali held in Devonport as part of the Ten Days on the Island Festival in March. 

Andrew Jarman, Ryan Mather and Emily Carter played a key role in activating the river as kayaking stingrays and on the day, worked closely with one of the designers in the production team.

The event was held as a celebration of the stories of Devonport area and Mersey River, aiming to:

"bring the whole community together, inviting us to consider our community’s identity and our region’s shared future.

Returning to Devonport where it began, this now-iconic event was the third created and narrated by artist and cultural leader Dave mangenner Gough. Its story, mulaka makalina (hunting stingray), is inspired by the waters of the river that literally runs throughout this stirring event."
