Description

What is the story of Queensland? From its people to its natural environment, Queensland Museum explores the cultural, geological and biological history of the state and holds in trust a collection of natural and cultural specimens and objects that tell our unique story.

As a caretaker of Queensland stories, our collection speaks to our shared Queensland experience. Our exhibitions explore the natural world and illuminate our cultural history. Our public programs invite visitors to share their stories, hear the tales of others and connect with the world around them. Our researchers work to better understand and share Queensland's history in the disciplines of Biodiversity, Geosciences, Cultures and Histories.

The Museum also welcomes stories from the rest of Australia and around the world, bringing to Queensland incredible experiences covering a diverse range of subjects including ancient Egypt, Brisbane fashion in the 1960s and the fight for Indigenous civil rights from 1920 - 1970.

The Museum building also houses the Sciencentre, which provides hands-on, interactive experiences for people of all ages. The Sciencentre encourages a fun approach to science and enhances our understanding of the world around us by educating through experience.

Queensland Museum & Sciencentre are within walking distance of Brisbane's CBD, and are part of the Cultural Centre that embraces the Queensland Art Gallery and Gallery of Modern Art, the Queensland Performing Arts Centre and State Library of Queensland. This precinct sits alongside South Bank, a vibrant mix of parkland, recreational and commercial space on the Brisbane River.
