Thank you for visiting our Etsy shop!

At Injalak Arts Centre, we're more than just a store – we're a community hub deeply rooted in the rich traditions of the Kunwinjku people. Since 1989, our non-profit association has been owned by the local Aboriginal community. Our centre is located in Gunbalanya, a small Aboriginal community situated in West Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory of Australia.

Our community consists of over 200 Kunwinjku members, including both men and women, young and old. Here, art isn't just a product – it's a story, a connection to our past and a bridge to our future. Many of our artists create their works on-site, while others work from their outstations (homelands).

We appreciate your support.

Quality Art, Jewellery & Fabric Hand-Made by Indigenous Australian Artists

Injalak Arts has been a centre for art, craft and community since it’s opening in 1989. We are based in Gunbalanya, a remote Aboriginal community in West Arnhem Land at the top of the Northern Territory in Australia. The population is only 1,200 people.

In Kunwinjku, the language of our artists, Injalak means shelter. We pride ourselves on creating a safe place for culture, creativity and knowledge to bloom within the community. With over 200 active members – artists, weavers and craftspeople from Gunbalanya and surrounding homelands, our year-round production of art is inspired by connection to culture, country and people.

All our art is informed by our artists’ experience, country, and culture. In West Arnhem Land bininj (men or people) and daluk (women) are born into eight skin groups and two moieties, Duwa and Yirridjdja. Each cultural group has their own history and traditions and each belong to a kunmokurrkurr (clan). In the same way a story or Djang (creation stories or Dreamings) can change depending on who is telling the story, the connections between people and the cultural intricacies they share also influence artistic expression.
