Added by Babbarra Women's Centre

Susan Marawarr is a senior artist from the Kuninjku language group.

Bábbarra Women’s Centre has a proud history of positive social impact.

From the early days, we have supported the lives of Aboriginal women in the community of Maningrida and on surrounding homelands.

Bábbarra Women’s Centre enables local women to develop and run women-centred enterprises that support healthy and sustainable livelihoods.

Bábbarra Designs is our main enterprise. We have a textile workshop specialising in the production of hand-printed fabric design, as well as a skilled sewing team. We are one of only a few Indigenous textile-producing art centres in Australia that design, print and sew product onsite, in community.
