The National Indigenous Art Fair will return to Gadigal Land, Sydney in 2026 to showcase creations from First Nations artists, designers and makers for its fifth annual art market.
At the ethical marketplace, there'll be more than 50 stallholders where you can purchase art, handmade jewellery, homewares, food and more. All proceeds go directly back to the artist and First Nations communities.
You can also check out cooking demonstrations, participate in workshops and enjoy the live music and dance performances.

Art centres attending
We opened our Marketplace up to remote art centres to support these as most Indigenous artworks are produced in around 90 art centres located in very remote regions of Australia. These centres represent a viable pathway to address the extreme economic exclusion experienced by residents of Australia’s remote Indigenous communities.
