UMI Arts fulfils the role of peak Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander arts and cultural organisation for Far North Queensland; an area defined by the federal electorates of Leichhardt and Kennedy. At the broadest level, UMI Art’s goal is to strengthen Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural practices, including visual arts and crafts, dance, ceremony, story-telling and music. UMI is a Creole word that means You and Me – for UMI Arts this is significant as we believe that we need to work together to keep our cultures strong. UMI (You Me) Arts is a branding image that is significant for both the organisation and for those markets with whom it engages. It speaks of our people and the need to work together and to do all things the “proper” - cultural way. UMI Arts is proudly an all-Indigenous managed and staffed organisation. This is our strong branding image of which we are extremely proud. We speak with a strong voice on behalf of our members and communities, as we have asked questions, listened to and heard what we have been told, and understand what our people want. UMI Arts Marketing Plan supports the primary goal of the organisation which continues to remain strong “To maintain and strengthen the identity of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in our region through our arts and cultural programs” (Cultural Maintenance).

Daniel Stacey Photography

Travel. Photography. Diverse cultures. These are my great passions. They also help me get even more joy from some of my other passions because I get to share them with friends and family through pictures and stories. Photos are so special because they give us memories of times and places and events in our lives. We can hold onto these memories forever with a photograph.
