Symbols of Australia

Australia is represented by many symbols, some endure, others fade away and new symbols develop as attitudes and values change. Often a source of unity and pride, symbols can also divide and exclude. Drawn from the collection of the National Museum of Australia, this exhibition explores some of the  symbols Australians have chosen to represent themselves and their nation. Until 8 Aug.
