Volunteers for NIFA, C2C, DAAF 2023

Volunteer Registration

The Darwin Aboriginal Art Fair Foundation’s mission is to provide vibrant and exciting platforms for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art and culture with a reputation for innovation, diversity and cultural integrity.

DAAF Foundation is a not-for-profit Indigenous corporation and our membership is made up of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Centres from across Australia. Our main event is the Darwin Aboriginal Art Fair (affectionately known as DAAF) held in Darwin in August each year. More recently, has been the addition of Country to Couture, a fashion show showcasing collaborations between our Art Centres and their chosen designers. DAAF Foundation also presents the National Indigenous Fashion Awards (NIFA), which celebrates the innovation, diversity and ethical practices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists and fashion designers, whilst contributing to the capacity building of the sector.

Volunteers are part of the DAAF Foundation family - we simply couldn't conduct our events without you! We aim to create a unique and memorable behind the scenes event experience in return for your donation of time. We hope to build a great relationship, so that you are excited return next year!
