My Way Explores Moreton Bay

This Sunday, February 25, Channel 9's My Way is shinning the spotlight on Moreton Bay and telling the story of the people behind some of our most iconic destination experiences.

Dreamtime Kullilla Art

Michael Connolly is an Aboriginal from Charleville, south west Queensland and a descendant of the Kullilla Tribe from the Thargomindah and Eulo region on his Father’s side and from the Muruwari People from Goodooga and Brewarrina region of north-west New South Wales on his Mother’s side.

With this rich Indigenous background and a unique way of interpreting his cultural heritage, Michael is able to represent a unique perspective in the visual and performing arts that informs his significant work in cross cultural contexts. His art is showcased at Dreamtime Kullilla Art Gallery in Clontarf. He is also an accomplished didgeridoo player and performer!

Morgans Seafood

One of the most popular places along the Redcliffe peninsula to enjoy fresh seafood, Morgans Seafood doubles as a fish and chip takeaway and fish market. Its seafood comes fresh from the trawler pulling in behind Morgans at Scarborough Marina every day before taking up a table in the outdoor dining area or get the delicious goods delivered straight to your door.

Built in 1986 the Fish Market is now one of Queensland's best-known seafood shops and fish markets. Each day this fish market displays over 180 fresh seafood products across 30 metres of ice.
