  • Jawoyn Bolung Poster by Jawoyn artist Marnakolorlo Alice Mitchell
    The painted image of Bolung by Jawoyn artist Marnakolorlo Alice Mitchell became the symbol of Jawoyn people’s connection to their traditional lands in their historic land claim over Nitmiluk and surrounding area. When Jawoyn won their land back in 1989, the painting marked celebrations at the park and it became the symbol for the Jawoyn Association and its tourism enterprise in Nitmiluk National Park. This poster has been reproduced from a screen print created by Chips Mackinolty in 1989 as part of the celebrations.

  • Jawoyn Seasons Calendar for Katherine Region - Northern Territory - Australia
    Jawoyn people have a wealth of knowledge about their environment developed over tens of thousands of years. Their country includes Nitmiluk National Park and the broader Katherine region in the Northern Territory, and information about seasons, weather, rivers, animals and plants has been passed down from generation to generation. This traditional ecological knowledge has been captured in a full colour calendar and features the five Jawoyn seasons - Jiyowk, Bangkarrang, Malapparr, Jungalk and Guran - as well as key plants and animals found on Jawoyn country.
