2026 SALON des Refusés

5 - 26 Aug. Opening Event 11am, Wednesday 5th August @ Midpul Art Gallery, CDU (Danala Campus)

The Salon des Refusés is the companion exhibition to the Telstra National Aboriginal
and Torres Strait Islander Art Awards (NATSIAA). Showcasing works submitted but
not selected for NATSIAA, the Salon highlights the extraordinary breadth and
strength of First Nations arts practice across the country.

Held during the Darwin Festival season, it offers audiences a rare and compelling
window into contemporary Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art, both where the
movement has come from and where it is heading.

More than an alternative selection, the Salon is its own
