After more than a decade, the Revealed Aboriginal Art Market returns to the heart of Perth’s CBD with a vibrant showcase of WA’s best new, emerging and established artists from across the state.
Brought to you by the Aboriginal Art Centre Hub of WA (AACHWA), the Revealed Art Market is the only place in Perth where you can buy directly from Aboriginal artists with 100% of sales going directly to art centres and makers.
Discover artworks and stories from across WA’s sprawling country – including the Mid-West, South-West, Pilbara, Western Desert and Kimberley regions. Featuring over 35 stalls, Revealed brings together artists from some of the most renowned Aboriginal art centres in Australia, alongside emerging independent artists.
Find artworks such as paintings, textiles, jewellery, ceramics, sculpture, fashion and more at price points to suit everyone, from the avid art lover to first-time collectors.
Housed in WA Museum Boola Bardip’s forecourt, the City Room, enjoy free performances from Nyumbi dancers, DJ sets, artist talks and live demonstrations. Plus, don’t miss the accompanying Revealed Exhibition – always a crowd favourite – showing just a short stroll away at PICA until 15 June.
