Ernabella Arts by Carly Tarkari Dodd, Caitlin Eyre, Maya Hodge, Anne Nginyangka Thompson

Ernabella Arts: Ceramic warka wiru 20 years-kutu (20 year of creating ceramics) ‘tells the story of the Ernabella Arts Ceramics Studio. We are very happy to work together with the JamFactory to make this book and also for the 20th anniversary exhibition. We have a long history and partnership with the JamFactory. They helped us to make the first ceramics more than 20 years ago.’ Anne Nginyangka Thompson, Chair Ernabella Arts

In celebration of 20 years of creativity at the Ernabella Arts Ceramic Studio, JamFactory and Ernabella Arts present a co-curated exhibition of new ceramic artworks by the art centre’s current artists. Founded in 1948, Ernabella Arts is Australia’s oldest continuously running First Nations art centre and is an important part of the lives of the Aṉangu people of Pukatja community. The beautifully written and photographed publication that accompanies the exhibition reflects on the development of the Ceramics Studio since its conception in 2003 and celebrates the enormous skill and talent of the artists at Ernabella Arts.
