Paul Mabb
I am Paul Mabb, proud Aboriginal Man. My ancestors are from the mainland, but I was born and bred in Tasmania. I have worked for the education department for over the last ten years, and have ran Gumnuts to Buttons on a number of occasions.
Gumnuts to Buttons is a visual interactive activity. It enables the participants insight into how first contact by white colonisers impacted Aboriginal People.
