National Indigenous Art Fair

Celebrate contemporary Indigenous Australian art, design, food and culture at the annual National Indigenous Art Fair Overseas Passenger Terminal, at Gadigal Country, The Rocks, Sydney. Launching Naidoc week, this iconic annual event held on Sydney Harbour’s stunning foreshore showcases the latest award-winning ideas and innovations from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists, designers, and makers from around the country. The National Indigenous Art Fair also represents an incredible gathering of indigenous creatives, with many travelling from the far corners of Australia – places like Aurukun in remote Queensland, and Ramingining, the Tiwi Islands and Yuendumu in the Northern Territory. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art centres from remote communities across Australia will bring their artworks to Sydney to exhibit alongside more than 25 Blak Markets stallholders. There will also be a colourful festival atmosphere with bush tucker cooking demonstrations, weaving and cultural workshops, live music, children’s activities and Aboriginal dance performances. With a full schedule of live experiences including talks, demonstrations, tastings, workshops, and daily performances, it’s a great day out for all the family. Everyone’s welcome to look, listen, learn, and join in!
