ABOUT

The Mowanjum Aboriginal Art and Culture Centre is a creative hub for the Woddordda (Worrorra), Ngarinyin and Wunambal Gambera language groups who make up the Mowanjum community situated 10km from Derby, Western Australia.

United in their belief in Wandjina as a sacred spiritual force and creator of the land, the Mowanjum community are custodians of Wandjina law and iconography.

The Art Centre is home to artist studios, gallery space, a community based museum, and one of Australias longest running Indigenous cultural festivals- the annual Mowanjum Festival.
