A new educational space has opened in Emerald, offering Central Highlands communities and visitors an inclusive space to learn, support others and express creativity.
Central Highlands Science Centre underwent a transformation last year and has reopened as the Outback Exploratorium, moving from the Emerald Showgrounds to Emerald’s town centre.
The new space boasts a large retail space, known as the nest, which carries STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and math’s) and educational toys, among other items, to help fund the new facility.
“The board’s very passionate about having a space in our community for local artists, so we’re also getting a range of gift wares that’s locally or Australian made,” operations manager Renee Firth said.
