About the organisation

Organisation Name : Mowanjum Arts

Mowanjum Arts is community-owned art centre representing the Wandjina-Unguud people of the Worrorra, Ngarinyin and Wunambal language groups.

Mowanjum Arts is a social enterprise that aims to balance commerce and culture to operate sustainably. Consisting of a painting and print studio, a large gallery and retail store, a community digital collection and media centre, and hosting an annual festival in July, Mowanjum Arts is a multifaceted organisation. In 2020, Mowanjum Arts will open its museum, providing visitors and community members with an interactive space to learn about rock art and traditional performance.

Situated at the start of the iconic Gibb River Road, Mowanjum Arts receives an estimated 20,000 visitors each year. Renowned for its Wandjina paintings, prints and carved boab nuts, Mowanjum Arts also travels to major Aboriginal art fairs nationally.
