Welcome to Perridak Arts

A Celebration of First Nations Culture and Creativity

Perridak Arts is a proudly First Nations-owned and operated space, dedicated to showcasing the artistry, heritage, and storytelling of First Nations creators from Ballarat and the surrounding district. Located on Wadawurrung Country, it is an essential part of the region’s evolving arts and tourism landscape, providing a platform where First Nations voices, traditions, and contemporary expressions are honoured and shared.

A Cultural and Creative Hub

Perridak Arts exists to shine a light on the talent, resilience, and stories of First Nations artists. Every piece—whether painting, weaving, sculpture, or handcrafted design—carries the essence of Country, culture, and connection. Owned and operated by the Ballarat & District Aboriginal Cooperative, this space ensures that the work of local First Nations creatives is not only seen but deeply valued and supported.

From the moment you walk through the doors, you are welcomed into an immersive experience of First Nations culture. The sounds, the scents, and the spirit of Being on Country fill the space, inviting you to engage, learn, and connect.
