Join our fun and organic dot-painting workshop!

Sit down with a local Aṉangu artist and interpreter to learn about ancient symbols, traditional tools for hunting and gathering and more.

Get inspired by the storytelling of the creation time (Tjukurpa) to create your very own work of art in this absorbing and often therapeutic adventure for everyone.

“We the Aṉangu are the descendants of the traditional inhabitants of the lands of central Australia. We are driven by our desire to preserve and pass on our cultural knowledge through our art. Our traditions have sustained our cultural, social, spiritual and economic life over hundreds of generations.”

— Nellie Patterson
