New Site for The Drayton Street Museum
The Southern Downs Regional Council has approved the relocation of the Allora and District Historical Society’s museum at 27 Drayton Street to 53 Warwick Street, the site of the main Allora museum.
Applications for Grants have been made to cover the cost of the relocation and other work involved but no decision has been forthcoming at this stage.
The Society believes the relocation to form one major Museum will be of benefit to Allora and will reduce the cost of running two facilities.
Exhibition of Wedding Gowns
The Allora Museum at 53 Warwick Street will be open this Sunday, 16 April from 1 until 4pm with an extensive collection of Wedding Gowns that have been worn by local ladies over the years.
The Gowns and Bridesmaid dresses have been tagged with the Bride’s name and who she married.
This exhibition will also be held on Sunday 21 May and Sunday 18 June.
On other days the Museum in Allora will open by appointment. Phone Wendy on 0488 673 778 to arrange a time.
