Like us, you know Australia's past, present and future are a fascinating maze of stories and questions. You realise an extraordinary country deserves an extraordinary place to tell those stories and ask those questions. Like us, you want to be part of it.
What does it mean to be Australian? A 60,000-year journey? A 'lucky' young country on the world's oldest continent? It means your story and those of others asking the same question. The National Museum of Australia was conceived to search for the answers and its journey has only begun.
The Friends of the National Museum of Australia has promoted the Museum since it was only an idea. Now it's your turn to shape the horizons of the Museum that tells your fascinating story. Join people like you who want to help Australia explore its past, illuminate its present and imagine its future.
