Queen’s Wharf Precinct Public Art Tour

Museum of Brisbane is launching a newly-curated immersive walking tour through The Star Brisbane and Queen’s Wharf Brisbane. Explore the art, history, and architecture within Brisbane’s visionary new lifestyle and cultural precinct when MoB takes its expertise to the city streets. 

This bespoke 45-minute walking tour is free for a limited time, giving you a rare opportunity to explore Brisbane’s newest multi-million-dollar public outdoor art gallery as well as visit key heritage sites in the precinct. Led by expert guides, you will get to hear stories of the First Nations people of the area and the connections to the artwork on display.  

With twelve football fields of public space, the $3.6 billion tourism precinct is brimming with large scale artworks by First Nations, Queensland and international artists. From alfresco murals and digital light projections to sculpture, floating botanical gardens as well as the historic surrounds of the riverfront sites, Queen’s Wharf Brisbane boasts one of the city’s most notable art collections. 

Art lovers will get to experience the likes of ‘Being Swallowed by the Milky Way’ – an eight-metre-tall, eight-tonne bronze oblong from Brisbane-based Chinese-Australian sculptor Lindy Lee, ‘Sheila’ – a larger-than-life bronze goddess from local artist Justene Williams and Tony Albert’s 15-metre floating botanical garden of native plants titled ‘Inhabitant’ as well as much much more. 

Tours are available to book now via MoB’s website.
