Italian Museum Cultural Centre

Italian Museum

The Griffith Italian Museum and Cultural Centre recognises the significant contribution of the Italian community to the social, cultural and physical development of Griffith and the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Area. It was largely built by the community of Griffith and funded by the Italian community and Arts New South Wales. It embodies many symbolic meanings, including the passion felt by Italian descendants of Griffith that their early migration memories and experiences – pre Second World War – be recognised, and preserved for posterity.
