Ngurra Architectural Design Competition Opens

The Morrison Government is proud to announce the launch of the Architectural Design Competition for Ngurra: The National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Cultural Precinct on the shores of Lake Burley Griffin.

Minister for Indigenous Australians, the Hon Ken Wyatt AM MP, said the opening of the design competition begins the process of realising the long-held vision for a national institution to recognise and honour one of the world’s longest living cultures.

“Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories belong at the heart of our nation,” Minister Wyatt said.

“This new $316.5 million Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural precinct will take pride of place on the land of the Ngunnawal and Ngambri people, on the primary axis in the National Triangle."
