National Indigenous Art Fair

28/07/2026

Your impact at this year’s National Indigenous Art Fair was extraordinary. Together, we generated over $1.2 million for our exhibitors 🎉❤️

Some of our remote art centres have been hit hard recently by devastating flood damage alongside broader economic pressures, which makes this outcome even more significant. The proceeds from NIAF provide vital, direct financial support to artists, remote art centres, and organisations from all over Australia, and best of all, 100% of profits go straight to our exhibitors, artists and communities.

Thank you for supporting, you made this happen !
