Founded in 1993 by Mrs Molly Clark of Old Andado, this museum is dedicated to preserving the place of women in history and their special contribution to Australia’s heritage. Currently based at the centrally located Old Courthouse, the organisation is actively lobbying for a new purpose built building within the Alice Springs.
Its two main permanent exhibitions are Ordinary Women Extraordinary Lives: Women First in their Field and Women at the Heart: Pioneering Women of Central Australia along with displays of domestic items connected with traditional women’s work as well as traditional craftwork.
It also has an extensive archive of HerStories and photographs as well as a reference library of books relating to Australian women’s history. Its website, Australia’s first virtual women’s museum, was launched in 2001.
