Cairns Indigenous Art Fair is a boutique art market showcasing traditional and contemporary artwork by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists from Queensland.

The CIAF Symposium (Saturday 21 August) will be facilitated by leading Aboriginal artist, curator and academic Dr Brenda Croft and renowned Torres Strait Islander artist Alick Tipoti.

There is a focus this year on discussing the rights, opportunities and responsibilities of artists, as ambassadors and cultural custodians, as well as having a close look at the new Indigenous Australian Art Commercial Code of Conduct or Resale Royalty Scheme.
