Tactile Arts is a member-based community organisation and we're always on the look out for volunteers! Volunteering with Tactile Arts is the perfect way to meet artists and be part of creative life in the NT. Being a volunteer has many advantages, including meeting new people, making friends, experiencing new challenges, being part of the community and gaining work experience.


Tactile Arts Retail Volunteers


Tactile Arts retail provides a platform through which the creativity and talent of our members, (and the Territory!) can be showcased. The entire range of unique and beautiful products in our shops have been produced by the incredible Top End artists and craft practitioners who make up our member base. It is a popular stop for visiting tourists and for locals alike, searching for a special piece of Territory craft for home.

We are currently looking for volunteers to support this wonderful component of our organisation by assisting in the running of our Parliament House outlet, which is open from 10am to 2pm, Monday to Saturday, re-opening on Monday, 27 February for 2023. Tactile Arts members with stock in the shop are particularly encouraged to volunteer as you will receive a discount on your commission for volunteering.
