The Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery
#weekendgetaways
Absolutely phenomenal. I usually tend to go out and explore by myself and museums are definitely my favourite. This museum has got to be one of the best by far. Shares a lot of history knowledge and I learned some new things about the history of the land. Wonderful items and I would 100% definitely recommend going!!
Educational free entertainment, located opposite the wharf in Hobart and stop 'O' on the Hop on Hop off double decker bus route.
The Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery have a lot of interesting displays to look at, some are interactive and some have films to watch. One of the films was 3D and 3D glasses were provided.
There is a small gallery specifically for children aged 0-7 which looked fun.

🖼️Fun & Learning At TMAG!🖼️
The Tasmanian Museum & Art Gallery was fun too. We went there after the Salamanca Markets. We got to see a variety of things from beautiful painted portraits to learning about the expeditions to Antartctica! Cuddly and I are from the Arctic, which is literally on the other side, but we wouldn't mind seeing Antarctica one day. I mean, it looks identical to home, just different residents!🐧
There was also a meditation room that mummy took a photo of, which had colourful screens of stars and galaxies. That and background music combined is like something out of the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey. Beautiful visual with strange music.
We touched some ice that was brought in directly from Antarctica, and boy was it cold! Just how we like it! We had a chat with a lovely little girl while there, who is very smart with a vivid imagination. Imagination is always a good thing to have especially in museums. Everyone who visits Hobart should come here. It's interesting and fun!
