It contains mysterious and creative artworks and stories curated by a group of 10 young artists, who have been meeting twice a week since May under Outback Theatre for Young People.
The museum process was facilitated by local artists Mel Anderson, Chantall Barnes and Meg Williams, with a guest workshop led by local artist Chelsea Lilford.
The contents were inspired by conversations about missing items, people and narratives, and there is a spooky, mischievous and dark undertone to the work the young artists produced.
The museum is only open from 5–6pm each night from Saturday, July 26 until Thursday, July 31, except for Monday, July 28, when it will be closed.
No bookings are needed, however anyone interested is being encouraged to show up early to make the most of your time in the space.
You can find the museum at 133 End St, Deniliquin.
Museum of the Missing has been funded by Create NSW, Regional Arts Fund, Edward River Council, Deniliquin Rotary Club and Transgrid.
