Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara events

The Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands in South Australia are known for their vibrant arts and cultural scene, which provides unique insights into Aboriginal heritage and traditions. One notable event in this region is Tarnanthi - Milpatjunanyi, an exhibition curated by senior Aṉangu women to celebrate the Aṉangu commitment to drawing and the Tjukurpa (ancestral creation stories and law) it represents. The APY Art Centre Collective, consisting of 10 Indigenous-owned and governed enterprises, plays a crucial role in preserving and promoting Aboriginal culture through professional art studios and collaborative projects. These art centers not only serve as a source of income and employment for Anangu people but also contribute to the economic, social, and psychological well-being of the local communities. Travelers visiting the APY Lands have the opportunity to engage with and appreciate the rich and diverse heritage of the Aboriginal communities through various arts and cultural events.
