The Aboriginal Cultural Centre of Australia in Alice Springs was founded by the Arrernte Aboriginal people. The centre's exhibitions about the lives of Australia's indigenous people are housed in a small, cosy museum. Here you can learn about the life of the Aborigines from the moment of first contact with Europeans, get acquainted with their art, try to play the traditional musical instrument “didgeridoo” and buy handmade souvenirs. You can also book a tour of the city and its surroundings with an Aboriginal guide to immerse yourself in the authentic atmosphere of the Red Centre of the country. Run entirely by members of Australia's Indigenous community, the Cultural Centre is a commitment to the Red Centre. The Cultural Centre is a must-see for anyone interested in Aboriginal culture, interested in Aboriginal culture.
For nearly 40,000 years, the site where Alice Springs stands today was a a meeting place for Aboriginal people, where they exchanged everyday objects, shared knowledge, and created art and culture together. And these traditions are still alive and well can be seen at the unique Centre, which maintains the unique way of life of Indigenous Australians. The Arrernte community itself is based 80 km south of the city, and the center was created to provide employment for Aboriginal people, develop infrastructure and provide them with housing. Today, more than 100 members of the tribe work with the centre on a regular basis - painting, creating crafts, souvenirs and other goods.
