The Wunthulpu Cultural Centre (Visitor Centre) was initiated by the Coen Regional Aboriginal Corporation (CRAC) to record and foster Indigenous culture

The Centre was built on part of the old Aboriginal Reserve, with assistance from various sources, including the National Heritage Trust (NHT). A story of the peoples of the region unfolds in wall displays which include a fine collection of photographs. Learn about the different language groups, their inter-relationships and their history after European contact

Part of the building is a hall for community meetings, and is available for hire. The kitchen is used to prepare meals for Home and Community Care, a CRAC initiative which provides meals and home care for elderly or infirm local residents

Art and Craft work such as printed T-shirts, postcards, leather and basket work is available for sale. These are produced at the Wunthulpu Arts Centre, which is another CRAC project.
