Description

The Aboriginal and Tribal Art Centre has one of the finest collections of its kind in the world. Here you'll find exhibited excellent examples of Arnhem land carvings and bark paintings, dot paintings from the western desert, antiques and artifacts from the Northern Territory, and even carvings and body ornaments from Papua New Guinea. If you're really lucky, you might even be treated to one of the performances by aboriginal dancers regularly held here. Once you've finished admiring the art (and maybe dance!), check out the books, and other gift and souvenir ideas also available for purchase.
