The Museum is proud to partner with the Commissioner for Aboriginal Children and Young People to present the Nunga Kids Art Competition as a display in our foyer. With 156 artworks on display, the competition celebrates the creativity, culture and voices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and young people across South Australia.
Now in its third year, the Nunga Kids Art Competition continues to grow as an important platform for young people to express identity, culture and community through art. The competition is open to Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander students from Preschool to Year 12 across South Australia.
The 2026 competition aligns with the NAIDOC Week theme, ‘50 Years of Deadly’, inviting young artists to reflect on the strength, pride and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples over the past 50 years — and what being “deadly” means to them.
