About
Ararat Gallery TAMA (Textile Art Museum Australia) is a public regional art gallery founded in 1968. Taking inspiration from Ararat’s historical association with fine merino wool production, we have been committed to exhibiting and collecting textile art since the 1970s. We engage local and visiting audiences through exhibitions, education programs, and community projects.
We acknowledge the many Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia and honour their Elders past and present.
We respect their deep enduring connection to their lands, waterways, and surrounding clan groups since time immemorial. We cherish the richness of First Nations peoples’ artistic and cultural expressions. We are privileged to gather on this Country and to share knowledge, culture and art, now and with future generations.
