There are a range of art galleries and many focus on Aboriginal artwork.
Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory
200 Territorians
On the cliff top running parallel to the Esplanade is a series of commemorative tiles dedicated to 200 typical Territorians. They are not all famous figures, but they all performed jobs upon which the Territory relied. There are people such as Ah Toy's, the greengrocers from which vegetables were shipped all over the ‘Top End' by air freight. There are stockmen and missionaries, politicians and aboriginal leaders. Then there is Eddie Connellan, who ran the Territory airline Connair (unofficial motto, ‘There's no tellin' with Connellan'), and many other colourful characters.
