Darwin Aboriginal Art Fair Foundation

The Darwin Aboriginal Art Fair Foundation (DAAFF) is a not-for-profit Indigenous organisation, owned and governed by the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community Art Centres it represents. DAAFF celebrates the rich cultural and artistic diversity of Australia’s First Nations art and design, with a signature annual event, the Darwin Aboriginal Art Fair (affectionately known as DAAF) and a range of events and programs throughout the year! Held in August each year at the Darwin Convention Centre, on Larrakia Country, the Fair is set to return 9 - 11 August, 2024. DAAFF is an organisation that has a national footprint, yet is grounded at the grassroots level with close and trusting relationships with Art Centres. Taking no commission on art works sold, DAAFF ensures that 100% of all sales generated go directly back to the artists and Art Centres. Over the past six years, DAAF has generated over $14 million for the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art sector. Cover Image by Photographer Dylan Buckee.
