Wai, Palya?

Welcome to the online world and archive of Big hART’s Ngapartji Ngapartji project.

Conceived in 2004 based on research undertaken since 1999 Ngapartji Ngapartji was based on Arrernte country in Mparntwe (Alice Springs) from early 2005 - mid 2010.

Ngapartji Ngapartji had many layers involving language learning, teaching and maintenance, community development, crime prevention, cross cultural collaboration and creating new literacy training models as well as film, art, policy and theatre making.

We invite you to have a look around and get to know a bit more about what the project involved.

The project is now complete, if you want to get in touch with to find out more please contact Big hART.

Palya! From the Ngapartji Ngapartji Team
