FREE event

The NSIMM will have free admission during the Arts Trail. All visitors to NSIMM will be able to see the Ngali Dullan exhibition and all the other museum collections and exhibitions.

The new Ngali Dullan exhibition has transformed the front three rooms of the museum. This new permanent exhibition aims to create an immersive atmosphere on entry to the Museum and give visitors a sense and understanding of Quandamooka people and country since time immemorial. It enables visitors to view Minjerribah / Tjerrangerri through a non-colonial lens.

Ngali Dullan is a collaborative community project with Quandamooka artists facilitated by Megan Cope. Contemporary and historical objects include woven baskets / gulayi, one by Granny Nuningha (Rose Martin) and one by Sonja Carmichael and a fishing spear / jibal by Matthew Burns. Commissioned works by local artists: Nicky Karklis-Jones, Nathaniel Chapman, Martin Karklis, Belinda Close, Elisa Jane Carmichael and Xoe Mazzoni, depict historical stories as well as important cultural and environmental information. These stories are overlaid on top of maps of country made by Megan.

Visitors can also visit the museum shop for our unique collection of books and merchandise with a Minjerribah theme. Including our own jams and marmalades. There will be opportunity to make a donation to our activities.
