Suggestions for Museum near Sydney City Center, Sydney

Simon T. • March 15, 2015Only open on weekends, and a bit small. Still fascinating - give this museum about an hour. Also, get the 4 "living museums" pass - well worth it!

Rachelle H. • December 6, 2013Had our work Christmas party here as a private function after hours, absolutely brilliant, if you're looking for something different you can't go wrong, ours was 'TV / Movie dress theme so perfect!

Glenda U. • January 8, 2014A must! Very interesting and educational. Free audio guide with the A$10 entry fee, so worth it. Don't miss the 1:45 pm guided tour. Try the hammocks.

Jade P. • April 5, 2012Small but beautiful museum. Always has quality exhibitions. Modern and fun.
