User:Yubu Napa

Yubu Napa Art Studio and Gallery was established in 2012 by Ric Farmer and Karl Bajzik. This studio and gallery was set up with the express intent on providing visitors to Alice Springs somewhere to see and meet the artists who are responsible for some of the best artworks from Indigenous Australia. The studio was established in the suburb of Sadadeen, on the east side of Alice Springs. In 2014, Yubu Napa purchased a property at 65 Hartley St, which was at one time the Panorama Guth Gallery - one of Alice Springs most recognisable and loved attractions. This gallery was sadly destroyed by fire in October, 2005. The artist, Henk Guth had sadly passed away several years earlier. He was the first Caucasian to be granted permission by the NT Government to be buried at Ormiston Gorge, a part of the scenic Larapinta Trail. Yubu Napa [pron You-Boo Nu-Pu] is a term from Bulgal, in the Top End of the Northern Territory of Australia, that has a double meaning: it means both to do the right thing, as well as beautiful.
