Presented by Desart, Desert Mob Artist Talks 2026 is an unmissable opportunity for audiences to hear firsthand from Aboriginal artists about their work and projects, community and country.
Held at the Araluen Arts Centre in Mparntwe/Alice Springs, Artist Talks is a day of presentations by art centres and special guests offering rich context to the Desert Mob Exhibition through presentations, interviews, film, and performance.
In 2026, Artist Talks celebrates the 50th anniversary of land rights and the Vincent Lingiari Art Award with a special presentation by the Central Land Council and guests.
