Collecting COVID: Contemporary Collecting at the WA Museum

What did WA Museum do when our State and our world rapidly changed right before our eyes? What is the Museum collecting to record Western Australia’s response to the pandemic and the impact COVID-19 has had on our State?

Join Catherine Belcher as she discusses the ways in which the Museum has "collected COVID" and see the first exhibition from this project.
