Our Museum is a busy place with Exhibitions from our collection, book launches and our annual Airing of the Quilts, plus collaborations with other groups such as Embroiderers.
OUR CURRENT EXHIBITION is DIGGING DEEPER
15 March – 30 June
Explore Alstonville’s very own archaeological site – the former Ocean View Hotel at Perrys Hill.
Discover the story behind fascinating artefacts dug up on our very own doorstep.
Inspired by the archaeology, we have dug deeper into our own Museum’s collection and discovered some rarely seen objects.
What were Alstonvillians up to during the 1880s, 1890s and 1900s???
Open Hours: Friday 10 – 4 pm, Sunday 1 – 4 pm
Groups are welcome at other times by appointment. Contact us: 6628 1829, email info@aphsmuseum.org.au
