A place of creation Kirrit Barreet
(meaning place of creation) is an art and cultural centre that exhibits high
quality local and regional contemporary and traditional Aboriginal art and
craft. The centre was established by the Ballarat Aboriginal community as a way
to preserve cultural identity and educate non-Indigenous people about both
Koorie culture and the local Wathaurong tribe.
Kirrit Barreet is also an education centre. Visitors to the Aboriginal owned and
operated centre can enjoy educational tours, cultural talks, an art gallery,
profiling Victorian Aboriginal artists and a retail shop stocking a wide variety
of predominantly Aboriginal Victorian arts and crafts, including an extensive
bookshop and educational resources. Activities such as didgeridoo playing,
boomerang painting and throwing are available. We also have an indigenous plant
garden and feature garden.
