Join us on Human Rights Day to connect with Hobart's communities through cultural performances, fun activities and acts of kindness.

Human Rights Day is observed every year on 10 December – the day the United Nations General Assembly adopted, in 1948, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR).

The UDHR is a milestone document that proclaims the inalienable rights which everyone is entitled to as a human being - regardless of race, colour, religion, sex, language, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status.

Event highlights include:

  • musical performances
  • floral arranging
  • chalk drawings and more!
