The National Indigenous Art Fair is returning to Sydney Harbour Foreshore just in time for NAIDOC Week. Celebrating this year’s theme ‘For Our Elders‘, the First Nations art market will feature a vibrant program of music, dance, food, workshops and much more. Now in its fourth year, the art fair showcases Indigenous art and culture and provides a platform for First Nations artists travelling from across Australia.
The National Indigenous Art Fair, Sydney
Taking place over two days on July 1 and 2 at the Overseas Passenger Terminal in The Rocks, the annual fair will fill the premises with dance, music and culture. At this year’s edition, the fair includes 25 stalls from the popular Blak Markets with a range of goods and products on offer like art, jewellery, gifts, homewares and Indigenous bush food and plants. Panel discussions, cooking demonstrations and a weaving workshop also feature in the program.
Sydneysiders will get the opportunity to interact directly with the artists and makers and learn more about Indigenous culture through the event.
Entry costs a gold coin donation and all proceeds from the fair go back to the artists and their communities. Get regular updates on their official website and Facebook Page.
