© 2003 Buku-Larrnggay Mulka |
Since 1975, Buku has catered to the artistic,
political and community needs of the culturally
strong Yolngu people of Yirrkala and more
than twenty outstations in Northeast Arnhem
Land. The centre boasts three gallery spaces, a
printmaker’s workshop and a large museum
(including the historic Yirrkala Church Panels). Local
artists have top reputations for magnificent and awardwinning
bark paintings and ochred memorial poles,
wood carvings, limited edition works on paper and
yidaki (didgeridoos). The Lonely Planet Guide says
visitors ‘should not miss’ this ‘major’ Centre.
Visitors are welcome - no permit required. Daily flights arrive
at Gove airport from Cairns and Darwin and accommodation
is available in nearby Nhulunbuy. Monday – Friday 8am –
4.30pm, Saturday 9am – 12pm
