What’s happening at @sa_maritime_museum

  • Our doors may be closed for the time being...but we’re definitely still here! 🥳 We’ll be developing new and exciting ways to bring our collection directly to you. In the meantime, check out our online galleries on our Google Arts and Culture page. Link in bio 🔗
  • The South Australian Maritime Museum will close its doors as of midday today, Monday 23 March until further notice. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ The safety and well-being of our visitors, employees, volunteers and the broader community is our top priority. We are taking these steps as a public health precaution in support of measures to contain the COVID-19 pandemic. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ This decision has been made in line with the new national widespread social gathering measures announced by the Prime Minister yesterday. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Thank you for your understanding. It is important that community health and safety are paramount. Take care.⁠⠀
  • Our museum is still open daily. As a precautionary measure, we are suspending all education and public programs until further notice at the South Australian Maritime Museum. The Port Adelaide Lighthouse will remain closed until further notice. All current school bookings for term 1 will be rescheduled to terms 3 and 4.⁠ At this stage the museums will remain open to the public as we recognise the important role they play in communities in times of uncertainty.⁠ ⁠We are closely monitoring the situation on an hourly basis and will immediately advise the public through our social media channels of any changes.⁠ Full details can be found here https://maritime.history.sa.gov.au/coronavirus-covid-19-update/
  • #Repost @historysa with @get_repost ・・・ #OnThisDay, 13 March, in 1986 the iconic Port Adelaide lighthouse was installed in its current location. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ After 84 years of service at South Neptune Island, the lighthouse was dismantled and reassembled as a static museum display in the heart of Port Adelaide. You can visit the @sa_maritime_museum and climb the lighthouse today!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ For more information visit sahistoryhub.com.au (link in our profile). ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 📷 South Australian Maritime Museum Photographic Collection, 6372⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #lighthouse #historiclandmark #PortAdelaide #OurPort #ourportadl #ptadelaide #portadelaidelighthouse #seesouthaustralia #cityofpae #history #SouthAustralia #historysa⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀
