With the goal of becoming a world-class destination for Aboriginal culture, the Northern Territory Government today (28 July) revealed its concept for the National Aboriginal Art Gallery (NAAG), to be located at Mparntwe/Alice Springs.
The design concept has been developed by BVN Architecture and local architects Susan Dugdale & Associates.
The Territory Labor Government has invested $69 million to develop the new Gallery, with the Federal Government investing a further $80 million into the project.
