South Australian Museum - North Terrace, Adelaide, South Australia 5000

There are two floors to the Australian Aboriginal Cultures Gallery, offering so much to see that each floor is worthy of a visit in its own right.

We ask that you choose a particular learning focus for your students' visit to either the Ground Floor or Level 1. This will ensure equitable use of the spaces by school groups and help make return visits more beneficial.

Choose from the Article Index (right) to investigate innovative technologies developed by Aboriginal people in their quest for food and water while living in diverse environments across South and Central Australia.
