Reviews
"An enjoyable experience where calmness and tranquility, meshes well with visually appealing regional art. The second floor exhibits were free to peruse and helped me gain an appreciation of Australian artists. I'm glad I found this place, as it was a great escape."
"Often amazing. I say 'often' as enjoyment is dependent on what artists are showing. Always, however, worth a visit even if sometimes the art work may not be to your taste."
"A fantastic art museum with a variety of art on display. Not to be missed on a visit to Circular Quay or The Rocks. A rooftop restaurant with fantastic views and a really nice gift shop on the ground floor. Staff are friendly and the Museum is really enjoyable and interesting."
"Great building but the spaces are not used properly. Innovation and interactivity are key to attract everyone. Make sure you visit the cafe in the last level, stunning views."
"Really loved this museum! Free entry and so much good stuff to see! I spend a couple hours here exploring and saw a good amount - everything was so lovely and thought provoking. Lots of care put into the labels with lovely little child friendly notes too, and there also was advertised a free guided tour if I remember correctly. The rooftop cafe was bustling and looked lovely but I just visited for the view - it was so lovely I can see why so many people mentioned it! Would definitely recommend if youβre in the area"
