Marvellous Regional Museums Award
at ABC Radio National
Established in 1993, Museums Australia is an advocate for museums and galleries, their collections and the people who work in them. The association is a national membership body working through a network of state and territory branches, Special Interest Groups (SIGs), the national office and an elected Council.
The two primary functions of Museums Australia are advocacy to government, (informed by research and consultation) and support for high standards of professional practice.
