Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery
Hobart City, TAS
The Story
Australia's second-oldest museum sits at the intersection of art, natural science, and colonial reckoning. The institution holds the State Collections and includes a working herbarium alongside its galleries — an unusual combination that gives the building a research-institution gravity most art museums lack. The formal apology to Tasmanian Aboriginal people, delivered in February 2021, signals that the hardest parts of the collection's history are being addressed rather than archived.
