Reviews
"Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Wonderful art and gift shop. Great to support local artists."
"was anticipating to see this museum however when i reached, i saw the notice that they are closed for business and will only return on 23rd Jan. there wasn't any announcement that they are closed on their website or facebook page. i was really disappointed as i would have planned other things if i know they are closed to public currently."
"This is a great space that's within the CBD of Adelaide. It has a huge gallery space and a theatre performance space."
"Beautiful space, warm welcome at any time & amazing stories to enjoy - a huge asset to the State"
"Excellent venue showcasing indigenous artists, with a large, modern auditorium fills music and theater performances. The gift shop has some excellent goodies, paintings and souvenirs that you won't find easily elsewhere. We were there on survivor day and really enjoyed the atmosphere and sincere hospitality of the organisers."
