Download the Territory Art Trails Guide
Territory Art Trails Territory Art Trails The Northern Territory is defined by its vibrant arts, cultural heritage and creative industries born out of its unique history and diversity – being home to some of the oldest continuing living cultures on earth. Cultural and artistic expression is very much a part of the NT’s identity and the arts sector is much more than meets the eye. From cultural festivals by the sea to desert choirs and bustling Aboriginal art fairs, the NT celebrates Aboriginal culture and art as fundamental to our identity and welcomes a diversity of cultures from around the globe that also play an intrinsic part in the Territory’s character, economy and appeal. The energy and vision of artists and residents from across the diverse regional and remote communities that make up the Territory are what makes it such a distinctive and vibrant place to visit and live.

Submission from Northern Territory Cattlemen's
NORTHERN TERRITORY CATTLEMEN’S ASSOCIATION INC . Advancing and protecting the interests of cattle producers in the Northern Territory M e m b e r - National Farmers’ Federation & Cattle Council of Australia Executive Summary The Covid-19 pandemic has created substantial economic hardship and opportunity for the Northern Territory. The pastoral sector has been largely insulated from the impacts of Covid-19 because of the way the industry is structured. It has, despite increasing regulatory and administrative costs, managed to keep its input costs to a minimum. Low input costs proved the foundation of the resilience which kept the 10,000 people directly and indirectly employed during what is the industry’s peak time. While there are many opportunities and requirements which can assist the Territory rebuild itself, this submission focuses on two immediate opportunities. We have included the NTCA’s overall election policy platform, which may seem outside this scope, but feed into broader debates around accelerated approvals and cumbersome regulation. We also attach some statistical data which reinforces the benefit of the Roads of Strategic Stimulus Importance we wish to see. The Roads of Strategic Stimulus Importance is not just for the benefit of the cattle industry but also the resources (mining and onshore gas) and the tourism sector. These are wealth generating infrastructure suggestions designed to ensure that the productivity of the Territory economy can be dramatically improved. We are seeking a $535 million injection of funds into key roads over a five-year period. This will create 3,000 jobs and unlock the true productivity potential of regional and remote Northern Territory. -
Trip Report: Victoria River District
Trip report: Victoria River District Micha Jackson and Amanda Lilleyman 31st July – 4th August 2020 The Victoria River District is one of the most lovely and most accessible birding spots in the Top End, situated about 500km south of Darwin on the Victoria Highway, which eventually ends up in northeastern WA. We scheduled our trip to arrive at the Katherine Poo Ponds on Friday afternoon, hoping for views of the first-ever Citrine Wagtail in the Northern Territory. There we met up with Katherine local birder- extraordinaire Marc Gardner, who had found the bird the previous weekend. We were also met by a group of local Darwin birders, Katherine locals, some visiting birdwatchers from interstate and some very keen twitchers that drove up from Alice Springs. So, there we were, scopes and bins lined up against the fence of the poo ponds scanning for a wagtail. But as goes with twitching, we did not find the wagtail. We dipped. Instead we were treated to an assortment of waterbirds using the sewage works, and also some interesting bush birds just behind us, including a Grey Fantail (a dry season migrant in low numbers in the Top End), Arafura Fantail, Shining Flycatcher, Leaden Flycatcher, Paperbark Flycatcher, Willie Wagtail and awesome views of a Collared Sparrowhawk (ebird list: https://ebird.org/checklist/S71972922). We counted all birds at the site until it was dark and then decided on dinner at the Golf Club before retiring to our camp at Shady Lane on Gorge Road. The next morning, we were up early to meet Marc and others to search for Crested Shrike-tit on the Central Arnhem Highway, and we had great success with one stunning individual (northern subspecies lifer for Amanda). -
