Sharing Stories in an Ancient Land: The Western Australian Museum has been published to coincide with the opening of the glorious WA Museum Boola Bardip.

The original site of the Museum, established about 130 years ago, has been transformed by marrying the heritage buildings with an epic modern structure.

Museums often tell stories through their public-facing galleries; this book uncovers and shares the work behind the scenes that goes into collections and exhibitions. Inside are stories about the research that supports the Museum's charter to cherish and protect the richness of Western Australia's land, sky, and sea for its citizens.

WA Museum Boola Bardip is for all the people of this state: the Traditional Owners, with their ongoing cultural connections to Country stretching back tens of thousands of years, and the settlers, migrants, and all the people who have made Western Australia their home and determined its future.
