The Milingimbi Art Centre is located on a small
island named Yurrwi, just off the Arnhem Land
coast about 400km east of Darwin. The
community has a long tradition of producing
high quality bark paintings, carvings and
weavings which are made with natural
materials and ochre paints. The diverse culture of the
community has been influenced by long term contact
with traders from Sulawesi and the coming together of
over twelve clans from both the mainland and “salt
water” country of the Crocodile Islands. Many artists
from Milingimbi are represented in major collections
throughout the world.
All visitors require permits, which can be obtained through the
NLC. Intending visitors must notify Milingimbi Art & Culture
prior to lodging their permit application
