We will be open on Monday 23rd Feb for a Probus visit . Morning tea provided let us know if you would like to come

Next Saturday is our first open day for 2026 The new year fun begins.

The museum is normally open next Monday. It was to be the last day this year we were due to be open. We close in December. however due to renovations and painting work we are closed to visitors . Apologies for that. But we look forward to opening in January and can’t wait to see our renovated rooms.

We are open for visitors as normal on Monday week ( the fourth Monday of the month) but we need to move the exhibits from the anaesthetic room as facilities are going to repair the flaking ceiling so any hands on help to move the exhibits would be appreciated.

Val, Marion Ros and perhaps Violet will be attending the NSWOTA conference in Gosford 8th & 9th March on behalf of SPASM
This year any 2 new SPASM member sign ups(at the conference) will have a chance to get their membership to the OTA paid for the year by the museum.
That’s a good deal as SPASM membership only costs $20 for the year!
Hope to see many of our friends there again.

We open in February Saturday 10th then every second Saturday each month and every 4th Monday each month. The first Monday wil be 26th Feb. Hope to see you then.
