Incite Arts acknowledges the Arrernte people, the traditional owners and custodians of Mparntwe (Alice Springs), where we are based, whose sovereignty was never ceded. We pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging, and acknowledge their continuous connection and contribution to land, water, and community. We further acknowledge and pay respect to all Indigenous peoples, cultures, and countries.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander viewers are advised that this website may contain images and videos of people who have died.
