An interactive museum marvel!
This former power station opened as a fun and funky museum in 1988 and is the largest in Australia, with a collection of 385,000 objects, 22 permanent and five temporary display spaces, and more than 250 interactive exhibits. It covers science, technology, creativity, decorative arts and Australian popular culture, resulting in such diverse exhibitions as Tokyo street style and childhood memories of migration. Also here is the Boulton & Watt steam engine (1785).
