National Wool Museum Director, Padraic Fisher;
It is an honour to be part of such deep connection – in a building embedded in the rich colonial history of Geelong on a place with thousands of years of ongoing cultural heritage. We welcome everyone to come for a visit to the 'Bluestone Jewel Box' share a story and make a connection of their own to this place we call Geelong.
Greater Geelong Mayor Peter Murrihy;
