 ‘Don’t Destroy the Powerhouse’: prominent people tell NSW government

About Us

The Powerhouse Museum Alliance is a group of concerned citizens working to save the Powerhouse Museum in Ultimo. The Alliance includes longstanding benefactors of the museum, former trustees, design and heritage experts and senior museum professionals.

The PMA strongly supports the development of a new museum in Parramatta. We ask the government to develop a coherent museum plan for NSW for the 21st century, underpinned by principles of equity and access to collections, and addressing glaring omissions in the profile of museums in NSW.
