The KAFTA Kimberley Program is hosted by Nagula Jarndu Designs (Saltwater Woman), an Aboriginal Corporations supporting 120 First Nations Women from around WA, on Yawuru Country to share and create textiles and related products that bring income and employment, whilst strengthening cultural knowledge, language and celebrating connection to country.
KAFTA was initiated in 2022 and is presented by a working group of leading Kimberley based Arts Professionals, designers and creatives.
In 2025 KAFTA will return thanks to the generous support of
Kimberley Development Commission

And the support of many local Kimberley businesses, arts and women's centres and local community school programs.
KAFTA brings us together to support the aspirations of our region to grow a strong and connected Kimberley wide textile and fashion industry.
