Head and shoulders of a stuffed thylacine
25 Nov – 17 Jan

Jodie Grillmeier: Remembering the Thylacine

  • Free
  • Art

Remembering the Thylacine: Museum Collections is a photographic project that presents rarely seen thylacine specimens as contemplative portraits. Working with museum collections, the project explores memory, extinction and preservation, creating space to reflect on the thylacine’s legacy and the role of museums in caring for what remains.

Come along to the exhibition launch on Thursday 26 November, 5.30pm to 7pm.
