Established in 1987, Warlayirti Artists Aboriginal Corporation is located in the small Indigenous community of Wirrimanu (Balgo) and serves approximately 200 Indigenous artists from the communities of Wirrimanu, Mulan and Kururrrungku (Billiluna). Warlayirti is a dynamic hub, with an Art Centre and Cultural Centre.
Nestled on the edge of a great escarpment where the Luurnpa (Kingfisher) Dreaming begins, Warlayirti Art Centre is a multifunctional space with artist's studios, a large gallery, Cultural Centre, New Media facility and an outdoor venue for community events. Artists gather daily to paint, women in the studio and men on the verandah, and during the dry season the Art Centre receives a steady stream of visitors.
