Proudly owned and operated by the Launceston City Council, the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery is Australia's largest regional museum.
The QVMAG enjoys a national profile for its collections of Australian colonial art, decorative arts and design, Tasmanian history and natural science. The QVMAG is located on two key sites: the 19th century railway workshop at Inveresk which houses the natural science and history collections, QVMAG Planetarium, The Blacksmith Shop and Phenomena Factory science centre; and its 1891 Royal Park building on Wellington Street which was officially opened as a dedicated Art Gallery in September 2011.
