Collection Conversations: Talks
Each month, Collection Conversations invites you to explore rich themes inspired by the Powerhouse Collection. Led by passionate volunteers, these talks weave storytelling, historical insights, and curatorial research into lively discussions that reveal our world in new ways.
Join us across Sydney — at libraries, community centres, and museum spaces — for a free program that celebrates learning, connection, and discovery.
In August, join us for Art and Science in the Powerhouse Collection
Explore the evolving relationship between scientific discovery and artistic expression. Through highlights from the Powerhouse Collection, this talk reveals how scientific instruments, medical breakthroughs and engineering marvels often reflect not just function, but beauty and creativity.
