Held at Sydney's The Star Casino, the third Dreamtime Awards was an opportunity to celebrate the achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People. Finalists were AAL represented by Aunty Esme Bamblett and 3KND Afternoon broadcaster Dennis Fisher...both were nominated by the Chair of FAME Grant Hansen. Either weren’t successful on the night but can hold there heads up high as both were short listed.
