On Saturday 2 and Sunday 3 July, the third National Indigenous Art Fair (NIAF) will transform the Overseas Passenger Terminal at The Rocks in Sydney into a vibrant marketplace for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists, designers, and makers from remote art centres around Australia. A wide range of beautiful handcrafted and limited-edition items made from locally sourced materials, natural fibres, and dyes will be available for purchase. Live events including communal weaving, bush food cooking demonstrations, children’s storytelling, workshops, and performances welcome all, daily from 10am–5pm.
