Alice Springs

Art Alice Springs

Alice Springs has a reputation for Aboriginal artwork - one of the oldest living traditions in the world.

Art lovers big and small can easily lose themselves in the range of private and collectively owned galleries lining pedestrian-only Todd Mall. You'll find some of the largest collections of Aboriginal art in Australia, and many internationally renowned names. Works are available for purchase or for browsing.

Reward yourself with a visit to the Araluen Arts Centre, a hub of the visual arts scene. Here you'll find collections and exhibits from both local and Australian artists, and historical Papunya boards showing early Western Desert dot painting. The Albert Namatjira Gallery is sure to amaze with paintings by this most famous of Aboriginal artists.

Venture further to community art centres in and around Alice Springs for opportunities to see artists at work and to talk with them about their paintings. Head out of town to Hermannsburg, a Lutheran mission now returned to the Aboriginal people and once home to Namatjira, where his originals are still on display.
