Wardan Aboriginal Centre

The Wardan Aboriginal Cultural Centre was developed by the Wardandi people as a place where they can share their culture with visitors, school groups and Aboriginal people from other areas, in an effort to increase understanding and reconciliation with the wider community. The centre offers a variety of activities designed to bring about a greater understanding of the historical, social and environmental issues affecting Australians. Activities include a one kilometre walk trail enhanced with bush tucker and medicine plants; tool making from natural resources, throwing of spears and boomerangs, art, face painting, interactive stories, dance and music. Whilst visiting, why don't you join one of their tours? You can join them to learn how to make a stone tool, throw a spear and boomerang or learn about the bush through story-telling. Tours range in price from AUD15.00 to AUD20.00. The Art Gallery exhibits and sells the works of the Wardandi people and Southwest Noongar and visiting exhibitions from the Northwest. The Centre has become known for its extensive collection of art. Located just three hours south of Perth, six kilometres south of Yallingup, the Centre is 30 minutes travel time from Busselton and 40 minutes from Margaret River.
