The Art Centre at Elcho Island is located on a
cliff top south east of the Galiwin’ku town centre
and enjoys spectacular views looking over
Mission Beach, Abbott Island and the
surrounding sea. The artists from Elcho Island
specialise in producing both traditional Yolngu
style works and more contemporary designs utilising
natural ochres on bark and paper. They also produce
stunning Morning Star Poles, Yidakis (Didgeridoos),
carvings, jewellery, and woven baskets made from raw
materials collected from the surrounding bushland and
beaches. The art centre is temporarily operating from
Marthakal Homelands Resource Centre.
