Established in 2014, International Museum Selfie Day is celebrated by hundreds of museums across the globe, with the aim to raise awareness of and encourage visitors to actively engage in local museums by taking creative selfies and posting them to social media.
Museums Bathurst has been participating since 2017, with over 2,000 people visiting during Selfie Day 2025 and it’s a fantastic opportunity for locals to see the world-class museums that are situated right in their own backyard.
You can get face-to-face with a T.rex, marvel at the largest model train display in Australia, immerse yourself in art, enter a home frozen in time, soak in the atmosphere of racing legends, or discover the amazing stories that made the Bathurst region.
Museums Bathurst is a suite of public museums managed by Bathurst Regional Council, located on Wiradjuri Country. Museums Bathurst acknowledges the Wiradjuri People as the Traditional Custodians of the land in the Bathurst Region. We pay respect to Elders, past, present, and emerging and acknowledge all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who live, work and play in the Bathurst region.
