Unique to Perth, this Aboriginal-owned and -operated gallery features beautiful artwork by West Australian Aboriginal artists.
At Maalinup (it means “place of the black swan”), visitors can also learn about and taste a variety of wild bush foods, native herbs, spices and peppers, and take part in the many cultural experiences on offer through partner business, Dale Tilbrook Experiences.
Owner, Dale Tilbrook is passionate about education and works extensively with students of all ages, sharing her knowledge of Australian native edibles and the cultural traditions of the South West peoples of Western Australia.
In addition, the gallery specialises in fine art by Indigenous artists from throughout Western Australia. The paintings on display are contemporary, colourful and connected to country. As well as original artworks and prints, Maalinup also offers a range of printed napery and t-shirts featuring Aboriginal designs.
Entry to the gallery is free. Activities attract fees and require bookings.
