Culture Up Late at Museum of Sydney

Explore the Museum of Sydney, Hyde Park Barracks and Justice & Police Museum during Culture Up Late with extended evening opening hours from 5-8pm every Thursday evening and FREE entry.

At the Museum of Sydney visitors can enjoy temporary exhibitions including Paradise on Earth and the installation Narcissus Garden by Yayoi Kusama, along with craft activities and a film program. 

Paradise on Earth celebrates the career and legacy of visionary artist and architect Marion Mahony Griffin and features dramatic installations, immersive digital experiences and unique objects.

In Narcissus Garden by Yayoi Kusama, one of the most significant artists of the 20th century, mirrored balls reflect each other and their onlookers, creating an infinitely recurring web in which the surrounding visible world is trapped and perpetuated. Evoking the mythological figure of Narcissus, this work allows viewers to see themselves and the world around them.

Sydney Living Museums are joining other major arts and cultural institutions for Culture Up Late, a NSW Government initiative aimed at revitalizing Sydney’s cultural life.

Culture Up Late at the Museum of Sydney, Hyde Park Barracks and Justice & Police Museum will run until the end of March 2021.

This initiative is part of the Summer in the City program proudly funded by the NSW Government in association with the City of Sydney. We’re working together to revitalise the city centre.
