PETA APPLEYARD GALLERY

Peta Appleyard Gallery promises to be like no other gallery in Alice Springs. Representing Watiyawanu Artists of Amunturrngu and exhibiting works by non-indigenous and Aboriginal artists alike, in a fresh, calm space in Todd Mall.

On Saturday 22 November 2008 the gallery opened its doors for the first time with an exhibition of paintings by artists from Mount Liebig Community (Amunturrngu). The soaring ceiling and bright white walls provided a perfect platform for the artworks to speak.

Alison Anderson MLA inaugurated the gallery and the women of Amunturrngu welcomed attendees with a dance performance to open the exhibition, an occasion that they had been anticipating for some time.
