Featuring water from the<br />

last ice age and breaking<br />

waters, Museum of<br />

Water is a collection of<br />

publicly donated water,<br />

each with an<br />

accompanying story.<br />

The worldwide collection<br />

holds 2020 bottles which<br />

treasure an experience<br />

that we cannot hold onto<br />

and explore the context of<br />

water now. It has been<br />

visited by over 65,000<br />

people and was<br />

shortlisted for European<br />

Museum of the Year.<br />

“Walking through the<br />

museum you’re struck<br />

by the generosity of the<br />

people who donated...<br />

Some of the bottles are<br />

so personal, it's almost<br />

shocking they'd let<br />

them go.”<br />

– Guardian Australia<br />
