Come visit Coomaditchie United Aboriginal Corporation (CUAC) and immerse yourself in a rich cultural experience right here in the Illawarra region. As an Aboriginal-owned and managed social enterprise, Coomaditchie offers you the chance to connect deeply with culture, history, and art.
Step into their vibrant art exhibition space, where the stunning works from artists are displayed. Each piece reflects the stories and traditions of the land. You can take home an original artwork or choose from beautifully crafted products, featuring artwork created by the Coomaditchie artists. From tote bags and cushion covers to shirts, mugs, tea towels, and art prints, every purchase directly supports our community, helping fund employment, training, and advocacy for Aboriginal people.
Take a stroll through the community garden, where traditional knowledge meets sustainability. Here, they grow native plants alongside fresh seasonal produce. You can even buy fresh eggs and produce straight from the garden – you might be able to pick your own!
Coomaditchie is a welcoming space where you can experience authentic Aboriginal culture, celebrate local talent, and support the community. Whether you're attending an art exhibition, joining one of the hands-on workshops, or simply looking to learn and connect, Coomaditchie offers a unique experience and a deeper understanding of rich Aboriginal heritage.
