A good news story
Art Centres – Supporting our Elders explores the ways in which three Aboriginal community controlled art centres are supporting older people and those living with dementia in remote communities. The centres are:
- Ikuntji Artists located in Haasts Bluff, Northern Territory
- Mangkaja Arts Resource Agency in Fitzroy Crossing, Western Australia
- Tjanpi Desert Weavers – NPY Women’s Council located in the Ngaanyatjarra Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (NPY) Lands of Western Australia, South Australia and the Northern Territory.
In partnership with the centres we have developed a series of short films that share the story of how the art centres support their Elders. We have also developed a booklet about the project and its outcomes.
