Go behind the scenes of Robert Connolly’s film Blueback (based on Time Winton’s novella) at this free and engaging new exhibition. You’ll discover how the movie’s life-sized blue groper puppet was brought to life, watch exclusive ‘making of’ footage, and see key objects from the film. You can also experience what it’d be like to be in the movie using the interactive greenscreen, and discover interesting facts about blue gropers (perfect for impressing guests at your next summer dinner party).
Sydney is gearing up for a sizzling summer and we’re not just talking about the weather. There are oceans of fun to be had on the arts and culture front, and the Australian National Maritime Museum is where you’ll want to start. As part of the sea museum’s brand new Wonderwater program, you can explore and interact with more than 20 activities, events and exhibitions on, in and around the water, including underwater drone experiences, a shadow puppet play, and a huge free cultural festival. You can experience the best of Wonderwater with a See It All ticket, or members and children under four go free. Plan your trip around these four must-see arts and culture events.
