TarraWarra Museum of Art

The TarraWarra Museum of Art sits on the Healesville-Yarra Glen Road near Healesville, in the beautiful Yarra Valley wine region outside Melbourne. A celebrated regional art museum, it's a genuine cultural destination — showcasing a significant collection of Australian art and a changing program of exhibitions in a striking, architecturally beautiful building, all set among gorgeous vineyard-and-valley surrounds.

The appeal is that combination of significant art, a stunning building and a beautiful Yarra Valley setting: exploring the quality exhibitions and the permanent collection, all within striking architecture surrounded by vineyards and rolling hills, makes for a wonderful cultural day out. Combined with the wineries and attractions of the Yarra Valley close by, it's a lovely, enriching destination.

With a 4.5 rating from more than 750 reviews, it's clearly delighting its visitors. The exhibitions, opening hours, admission, the cafe and any events vary with the program, so it's worth checking current details before you go — particularly to see what's on and confirm opening days — while looking forward to the art and the beautiful Yarra Valley setting at TarraWarra.
