proppaNOW is a Queensland Indigenous arts collective set up in Brisbane in 2003.

Mission
At its initial meeting, proppaNOW proposed to form as a group of Aboriginal artists who would support each other's work and "change ideas that people had about what Aboriginal art is and what it should be." The collective has since evolved a mission to "give urban-based Aboriginal artists a voice...[to]reinforce that Aboriginal Australia is a living culture that has evolved over time."
Members
Founding members were Richard Bell, Jennifer Herd, Joshua Herd and Vernon Ah Kee.
Current members are Bell, Jennifer Herd, Ah Kee, as well as Albert Tony Albert, Gordon Hookey, Laurie Nilsen and Megan Cope.
