Tarrkarri - Centre for First Nations Cultures will provide a platform for the world to learn about the unique cultures and incredible story of Australia’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People.
Located on Kaurna Yerta (Kaurna Country), Tarrkarri will be Australia’s premier Centre honoring more than 60,000 years of continuous First Nations cultures across the country.
Tarrkarri will be the cultural heart of Lot Fourteen and be internationally recognised as an iconic place of belonging, healing, reconciliation and pride for the people of South Australia and will help drive interstate and international tourism to Adelaide as a unique major cultural destination.
Tarrkarri will create an extraordinary, immersive experience combining traditional storytelling with modern technology to deliver a major cultural tourist attractor and a source of pride for all South Australians, as the world learns more about the incredible story and unique cultures of Australia’s First Peoples.
The state government is working in close partnership with Aboriginal communities on planning and development of this internationally significant Centre, to ensure strong representation of the Aboriginal people’s story and their culture, values and aspirations.
