Mimili Maku Arts is a vibrant contemporary art studio owned and governed by a strong board of Anangu directors. The art centre supports artists across different disciplines such as painting, new media, sculpture and publishing. Mimili Maku Arts is a place for intergenerational exchange and learning, where Anangu knowledge is celebrated, maintained and lived daily. Being a sustainable business for future generations of Anangu living in community, we are not only a space for artistic excellence but also a tool to support real social change and political advocacy. As a grassroots organisation we uncompromisingly support the vision of our Elders, driving economic, cultural and social Anangu leadership across all levels of our business, and significantly improving community health and wellbeing. As founding member of the APY Art Centre Collective, Mimili Maku Arts continues to work alongside families and friends from other APY communities to develop regional large-scale artistic projects. Through the APY Art Centre Collective we have been able to open our own galleries in Sydney and Adelaide to increase support to young and emerging artists in the early stages of their careers.
