Explore the rhythms and rituals of winter in south-east Australia, in this special display complementing the National Museum’s new Antarctica exhibition.

Time

9am to 5pm, daily

Location

Gandel Atrium

Though far from the frozen vastness of Antarctica, south-east Australia still feels its icy breath. For some, winter sparks a spirit of adventure. For others, it draws life closer to home, to small rituals of comfort and self-care.

Drawn from the Museum’s collection, these objects show how Australians have embraced the cold.
