National Indigenous Art Fair

The National Indigenous Art Fair is an ethical marketplace held on Gadigal country at Warrane's (Sydney Cove) Overseas Passenger Terminal, The Rocks. The festival offers a unique opportunity to buy artworks directly from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists from remote community-owned art centres from the Northern Territory, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia and regional and remote NSW. 

Now in its sixth year, the Art Fair is an immersive weekend of Indigenous art, design, food, performances and culture.

This year there will be the opportunity to taste and learn about native bush foods from celebrity Chef Mindy Woods, while listening to the sounds of Stiff Gins and Olivia and Cianna.

During the weekend there will also be a free communal weaving circle, children's dance workshops and more.

Opening the Art Fair on Saturday, Budja Budja Butterfly will welcome guests with a Smoking Ceremony and traditional dance, and on Sunday Brolga Dance Academy will perform their contemporary dance.

On Sunday afternoon we will present a fashion panel discussion, shop at the runway and flash mob performance.

There will also be intimate hands-on workshops presented by remote artists which you can read about and book here www.niaf.com.au/workshops
