Dear residents, In less than two months, the new WA Museum will open its doors for the first time. I was lucky enough to get a behind the scenes tour and I guarantee every Western Australian will love it. You can register for the ticket ballot to see the museum in the first nine days at www.museum.wa.gov.au This month, I was also lucky to take a look through Perth’s hidden heritage marvels - the old Savoy Hotel and the Metropole Hotel and Royal Theatre with Activate Perth’s Kylie Taylor and building owner Les Wilson.

Perth’s secret heritage will be key to the future of the Perth City’s heart. Kind regards, ABOVE: Speaking with Activate Perth’s Kylie Taylor and building owner Les Wilson about heritage.
