For the art buffs!
Here at the National Archives, it’s the last weekend of the Waterhouse Natural Science Art Prize exhibition. Amazing artworks, including some pretty spectacular glass pieces. We’re the only venue outside Adelaide to host works from the prize. It travels annually from the South Australian Museum but next year they will not be holding the competition so this really is your last opportunity for awhile.
