Museum
Subiaco Museum is situated between the city's Administration Centre and Subiaco Library on Rokeby Road in Subiaco.
The museum has a collection consisting of several thousand objects, documents and photographs, all of which have at least a part of their history in Subiaco. Some items relate to the area's Aboriginal heritage, while others were brought to Subiaco by settlers from Europe and Asia. Some have a history of several generations in Subiaco.
Interpretive displays and special exhibitions are available for public viewing, and are changed on a regular basis. Thematic displays of items from the collection are shown in the museum's four galleries and hallway, as well as in the Subiaco Library and the corridor to the left of the city's Administration Centre reception desk. Direct enquiries are welcomed by the coordinator of heritage services on 9237 9227 or email city@subiaco.wa.gov.au
