Tarnanthi is the Art Gallery of South Australia’s (AGSA) major showcase festival of contemporary Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art. It began as a one-off in 2015, but has since grown into a significant national event that spans 27 venues across South Australia with support from the SA Government and corporate partner BHP.
It’s an art festival and art fair with a stunning track record that invokes a celebratory air. But, with this year’s events being so close in proximity to the Federal Government’s Voice referendum, visitors may be wondering if the mood feels a little different this time.
