Museum of Brisbane’s an interesting one in that it’s run quite differently to the other museums and public galleries in town. As a result they often have really interesting, quite niche, exhibitions that the others wouldn’t. And their collection is amazing.

Lately it’s started to feel a bit like a tourism ad for Brisbane though - a bit beige and lacking substance. Here’s hoping they get back to doing what they used to do well - telling small but awesome Brisbane stories in really interesting ways.

Hi Cazmac26,
It’s great to have regular visitors of the Museum including yourself. At Museum of Brisbane we aim to provide opportunities for art, culture and history to be experienced, therefore we’re always looking for bold ways to share our city’s stories, and to shine a light on the creative people of Brisbane.

The Museum is dedicated to supporting the city’s many talented artists, designers, writers, historians and storytellers. You can experience this through exhibitions, including our current exhibition BRISBANE ART DESIGN (BAD), until 11 August. We look forward to you visiting us again soon.

Great deal of history... Of the building, and therefore the town. We took the clock tower tour as well, which was certainly worth our time.

I always visit the museum every couple of months for the different exhibits. Plus there is always the City Hall clock tower to visit as well.

This turned out to be a huge flop. It’s nothing more than a very abbreviated history of Brisbane in a few old pictures. The video was clever and informative but too short, too selective, too blinkered. The whole experience takes no more than 20 minutes max. It needs a whole lot more! Very disappointing.

Hi Cris101,
We value your feedback regarding our Perspectives of Brisbane exhibit. At Museum of Brisbane we believe art, culture and history should be experienced, therefore we’re always looking for bold ways to share our city’s stories and history, and to shine a light on the creative people of Brisbane. As a permanent exhibition in the Museum, Perspectives of Brisbane, offers an insight into the people, moments and surroundings that set us apart from the rest — through stories, facts, photos and film. This exhibition space is ever evolving, so we hope to see you back again soon as the space introduces new stories. Visit Museum of Brisbane's website to find out more about the exhibition program.

We started the morning with a tour of the City Hall building. Then headed up stairs to view the Museum. And have enjoyed 2 different displays there. We also checked out the Clock tower tour.
