On Saturday 9 September 2023, Upper Deua Catchment Landcare group and the Araluen Community celebrated the completion of the Araluen Creek Restoration Project 2021-2023. This special 'red carpet' event at the Araluen Federal Hall featured the 'world premiere' of the short documentary film made by local award-winning documentary filmmaker Clare Young and her team.

It was a wonderful event - with afternoon tea, a commemorative cake and 52 attendees in all, including special guests Turlough Guerin, CEO of Landcare NSW, Steve Whan, MP for Monaro and Queanbeyan-Palerang Reginal Council mayor Kenrick Winchester, General Manger Rebecca Ryan, and Councillor Katrina Willis. Thank you all for coming and we hope you enjoy watching and re-watching the film!

Watch it Now: Araluen Creek Restoration Project Film has Launched!

The film is produced by local award-winning documentary filmmaker Clare Young and her team and captures the local Araluen community connecting up to oversee a big project to stabilise the Araluen Creek – a shared environmental resource – that is the lifeblood of the Valley. At its heart the video tells the story of how local communities can work together to bring about positive change to build community and environmental resilience in the face of a changing climate.
