Dr Mick Adams, chair of NACCHO and also an accomplished Aboriginal artist has donated yet another painting (100x74cm) by himself which is to be auctioned to raise funds for the Friends of NACCHO. Mick has also agreed to be commissioned to produce other works on request, at the right price, to raise further funds on behalf of the Friends of NACCHO.

 

The date and method for the latest auction is yet to be determined.

 

Dr Mick Adams is a descendent of the Yadhiagana people of Cape York Peninsula in Queensland and has traditional family ties with the Grindji/Wardaman people of central western Northern Territory and an extended family relationship with the people of the Torres Straits, Warlpiri (Yuendumu) and East Arnhem Land (Gurrumaru) communities. He spent his childhood growing up in Darwin's Parap Camp community.
