MOWANJUM ARTS & CULTURAL CENTRE

Mowanjum Aboriginal Art and Culture Centre represents the Wandjina-Unguud people of the Woddordda, Ngarinyin and Wunumbal language groups. They are united by their belief in the Wandjina as a sacred spiritual force and creators of their traditional lands. The centre hosts exhibitions and workshops, incorporates a commercial gallery and state of the art museum and holds the annual Mowanjum Festival celebrating Junba (traditional song and dance).

From December 2022 to January 2023, floodwaters from Ex-Tropical Cyclone Ellie caused significant impacts on the lives of people living and working across the Kimberley Region of Western Australia.

These floods impacted Aboriginal artists and art centres across the region. Given these circumstances, Fremantle Arts Centre has worked with art centres to ensure visibility in this year’s Revealed Exhibition, through the occasional inclusion of works by established and senior artists.
