PPCfR commissioned Indigenous artist Susan Naden to design a logo for the group. It was to reflect Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoplecoming together and the Port Phillip area with its land, sea and parks and resulted in the two figures surrounded byblack, brown and white-coloured 'hands' that are often used as a symbol of reconciliation, and colours of the land, sea and parks.
