A community centre

The Nyinkka Nyunyu Centre in Tennant Creek promises a unique opportunity for visitors to stop, refresh themselves and enjoy the arid zone garden, the interpretation of Warumungu culture, the art and craft market, and traditional dance.

There is strong community support for the Cultural Centre, for its potential to maintain Warumungu culture, to interpret the Warumungu world view and experience to visitors, as well as provide income and employment in the Barkly region.

The project approach encourages "people doing it for themselves" to create a community resource and a place for meeting where Warumungu people can tell the "proper story".

  Jampin Jones and Joe Carter plant a tree at the centre.
