ABC Radio National Regional Museums Award

ABC Radio National is once again inviting Australia’s regional museums to step forward and tell us all why they should be recognised as the finest in the land. Now in its third year, the Regional Museums Award will focus on museums in their roles as local story-tellers and local ambassadors (encouraging tourism and regional development) and on how they look towards survival in the future.

This year there will be three categories:

· Best volunteer-run museum

· Best small museum (with a total budget of $150,000 or less)

· Best Indigenous Cultural Centre/Keeping Place
