ABOUT THE ART CENTRE
Bindi Enterprises is an innovative social enterprise providing supported employment and training opportunities for people with disability. Bindi is the only organisation of its kind in Central Australia providing all people with equal recognition, equal treatment and equal opportunity.
Bindi has been operating as an employment and community access provider in Alice Springs since 1978. The centre was established by parents of people living with disability to address the lack of employment and community engagement opportunities for those marginalised by mainstream workforces. Today, Bindi Enterprises continues to do this within four departments; the Contracts Department, the Bindi Workshop, Bindi Mwerre Anthurre Artists and the Bindi Digital Arts Program.
Bindi also provides community participation options for individuals to develop skills in a range of art and craft, work practices, commercial industries and independent living skills.
These services are complemented by tailored case management to enhance outcomes for people. This involves liaising with relevant service providers and fielding transitions into meaningful employment.
