Description

Discovery Space – Museum Designer

Is the National Museum building like any other building you have ever seen? Do you know what it represents? If you could build a museum, how would it look and what would be on display? Using the National Museum's architecture for inspiration, children can design, make or draw their very own Museum these school holidays.

Where our stories come alive

The National Museum of Australia brings to life the rich and diverse stories of Australia through compelling objects, ideas and events. Our exhibitions, collections, programs and research focus on three interrelated themes; Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander history and culture, Australia’s history and society since 1788, and the interaction of people with the environment. These define our conceptual framework through the themes of; land, nation, and people.
