 There is also a 'Battle of the Bands' night which showcases local bands.In the early 1980s the Yuendumu elders painted ceremonial designs on canvas, which begun the art movement at Yuendumu.The first painting there was on the door of the Yuendumu school (which later started the Yuendumu Doors series), painted by P. Japaljarri Stewart and Kumanjayi Japaljarri Sims, who are some of the most well known artists at the community.
