Yaamanga Around here is a permanent exhibition exploring the history and identity of the Coffs Coast through themes of place, community and belonging, with Gumbaynggirr culture at its heart. It features hundreds of historical artefacts, photographs, artworks and digital multimedia from Yarrila Arts and Museum’s collections. Deep dive into local stories that will be a revelation: surprising, thought-provoking, playful and inspiring in turn. 

Featuring, Daalga Nginundi Wajaarr Sing Your Country, a creation by ZAKPAGE, award-winning storytellers who work at the convergence of film, sculpture, design and architecture. This artwork is dedicated to the Gumbaynggirr people; it is their ancestral lands upon which we live and work; they who were so generous with their cultural knowledge and lore in the making of this film.
