1st July 2021

Last year I asked entrants to email me their favourite island and the thing that made it special. This year I am asking entrants to teach me about the food of Zenadth Kes.

Important: As this piece is a Zenadth Kes design, and my promise to the community is that I only ever make them for Zenadth Kes Islanders, only Zenadth Kes Islanders can enter. Thank you for your understanding.

This year the competition prize is a 3.5 cm Warup in 9ct gold that sells for $540. This the only one I have at the moment so even if you wanted to buy one I cannot sell it to you. Enter the competition :)

Good luck.

How to enter

You must also be living in Australian as I will only post to an Australian address.

I want to learn more about Zenadth Kes so I am going to do that through the competition. You enter via email following these steps. You can only enter once:

• Tell me your favourite Zenadth Kes food.

• Optional: If you email me a recipe I will give you an additional entry in the draw.

• Place the above information in an email with the subject “NAIDOC 2021”.

• Confirm in the email that you live in Australia as I will only post the items to an Australian address.

• Email me before the end of day 11th July 2021 - david@davidtaylor.com.au

I will do the draw sometime on the 12th of July and publish the winner here.

I no longer publicise this competition on my business Facebook page that has about 4000 followers so if you enter your chances are much higher than previous years. I will announce it on my Instagram page but that has less than 100 followers.

Last year I think 30 people sent in entries that were all a joy to read. Quality over quantity works for me.

After quite a few years this will be the last year that I will be running the NAIDOC week competition. I have some other projects in the First Nations community that I will doing going forward. I may come back to it later but for now this will be the last one for NAIDOC week.
