Exhibitions – Aboriginal Art at Japingka Gallery 1997-2010

Japingka Gallery opened its exhibition program in 1997 with Aboriginal prints from the Art Print Network. Previously the artworks shown were all Aboriginal paintings and prints from the gallery collection. Since that time Japingka Gallery has hosted over 175 exhibitions sourced from Aboriginal communities and regions across Australia.
