About Us

Dreamtime Public Relations is an award winning national company specialising in Indigenous graphic design, web development, promotional merchandise and communications strategy.

All our staff are Indigenous and qualified to execute any project from branding and marketing materials to business mentoring and large-scale promotional campaigns.

The prime reason for the company's establishment in 2002 was to employ and mentor Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the production of quality visual and online communications.

The team's attention to quality culturally appropriate products and excellence in customer service has seen the company grow to a national client base resulting from referrals, awards and media coverage.
