  • Description

    Description

    We are an Australian artist couple and have created the Museum as art museum in the beautiful Piedmont village called Conzano.

    Our aim is to enhance social connectedness and foster connections, which develop links within new and existing global community members. In this way it seeks to encourage personal understandings between new migrants, not so new migrants and members of mainstream communities internationally.

    We opened the Museum on the 27th August, 2023
    We have an historic well to point and restore as well as a garden to create.
