Waringarri is the first wholly indigenous owned art centre established in the Kimberley region and one of the oldest continuously operating art centres in Australia supporting economic independence for artists and their community. The centre operates artists’ studios and galleries and supports more than 100 artists as painters, printmakers, wood carvers, boab engravers, sculptors and textile artists. Cultural tours and performances compliment the visitor experience with a rich insight into Miriwoong culture. Waringarri Arts offers a range of authentic art and culture tours. Let our Miriwoong tour guides show you their country and culture through art.
We were lucky enough to have a fantastic and intimate tour through Mirima National Park with local legend Ted Carlton. We learned about the local flora and fauna, the history of the land, and saw a number of historical rock paintings up and close. Afterwards, Ted and his nephew Milton took us through the art centre to explore the history of the artefacts, taste some baobab fruit, damper and bush honey (incredible!). To top it all off, Ted played us some didgeridoo as we sat around the table. An incredible experience, I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

The AWARD WINNING BROOME HERITAGE CENTRE’S Relationships Exhibition, Heritage listed ‘Old Convent’ building and Garden of Healing offers a unique window into the Kimberley’s pioneering past and the relationships between its Asian, Aboriginal and European people. View the significant Kimberley photographic collection displayed in one of Broome’s remaining few Japanese ‘Shinkabe’ buildings, visit the original foundation site where the Sisters lived in 1908 and wander the paths into tranquil garden-rooms to see native fruit trees and listen to narratives on the audio stations.
This Centre is a wonderful collection of an enormous amount of information regarding the provision of health services by nuns at Beagle Bay. I spent a number of hours there and would certainly go back.

Derby's Norval Gallery is run by a Kimberley artist husband and wife team Mark and Mary Norval. The gallery showcases their own insightful work as well as the artwork of many indigenous artists from the amazing Kimberley region of Western Australia. All of the artists are happy to talk about their unique artwork and are willing to share their painting techniques and ideas whilst being watched at work by visitors to the gallery. Other must see highlights of the gallery include, Australia's best historical carved Boab Nut display, an extensive collection of rare and beautiful sea shells and locally designed Boab tree inspired jewellery. For the music buffs there is a collection of 5000 of the best LPs ever recorded. The Lonely Planet Australian travel guide for 2012 rated Norval Gallery as one of its top 60 "top choice must see" destinations Australia wide. The gallery is closed during the months of November December and January
What an amazing gallery and what wonderful people involved. Could not believe how accomodating and friendly everyone was, the most amazing art ever and Mark himself very happy to chat and discuss his history and activities within the local community. He is so obliging to the local indigenous community and they are just a wonderful family all around.. (Adds to the wonder that he supports Geelong in the AFL as well-Go cats)

I've worn a pearl ever since my first trip to the Kimberley four years ago, but I never really knew how pearls were formed until I visited Cygnet Bay Pearls. The coolest thing is opening an oyster and grading a pearl through to valuation, I have a new found respect for the work and time that goes into the pearling industry. Good luck coming here and not walking away with a precious little treat. I managed to restrain myself on the day but I'm almost certain that a ring in the display cabinet has my name on it.

Original artwork created by local Broome artist James Down. Come down and see James painting on site and have a personalised artwork created just for you! Also available locally produced homewares (Coasters, Placemats, Pencil Cases, Stubby Coolers, Wine Coolers, Magnets and much more)
I am fascinated by this kind of art. The colorful paintings of James Down are amazing. The paintings of the Outback are magnificent. It's a fantastic gallery and a wonderful place to buy unique gifts and paintings. They also ship paintings overseas for a reasonable price. When I'm in Broome, the gallery is on the to do list.

Visited by chance and walking through Broome. The photos on show really capture the natural beauty and colours of the region, and you can see why Yane has won many photography awards. Bought one of his photos of Cape Leveque. Would recommend a visit.
