Warmun Art Centre

Warmun Art Centre is found 200km south of Kununurra and was established in 1998 by the late founding members of the contemporary painting movement in Warmun such as Rover Thomas, Queenie McKenzie, Madigan Thomas and Hector Jandany. These elders recognised and responded to the need for a community owned and controlled centre through which they could support, maintain and promote Gija art, language and culture.

Warmun artists are renowned for their use of natural ochre and pigments on canvas to represent traditional Ngarranggarni (Dreaming) stories and contemporary life.
