a toast to melba @ yarra ranges regional museum

Yarra Ranges Regional Museum, Lilydale is celebrating Australia’s legendary soprano with A Toast to Melba, an exhibit showcasing treasured costumes, photographs and performance memorabilia from Dame Nellie Melba’s illustrious career. Kids will love spotting sparkly shoes and a jewelled dagger from Romeo and Juliet, while adults may admire the vintage Louis Vuitton luggage. Upstairs, the gallery transforms into Melba’s Vintage Playroom, where little ones can enjoy dress-ups, hula hoops, wooden trains and a puppet show — a hands-on experience that perfectly complements a visit to this family-friendly museum.
