Karungkarni Art and Culture Centre is at the entrance to the northern Tanami Desert community of Kalkarindji/Daguragu, traditional home of the Gurindji people. The artists have wanted an arts centre in their community for some years and, in late 2010, a local CDEP team modified the old powerhouse so that the artists finally have a place to gather and paint. Successfully registering their own corporation in July, the artists continue to work on their paintings, telling their traditional Dreaming stories on canvas, in preparation for the Darwin Art Fair and for the 45th Anniversary Freedom Day celebrations in Kalkarindji.
