History Week: Tea and Tales at Yarrila Arts and Museum

Step into Coffs Harbour’s past this September at Yarrila Arts and Museum (YAM) as we celebrate History Week with a special day of connection, reflection and creativity.  

Begin the morning with a guided tour of Yaamanga (around here), YAM’s permanent social history exhibition and uncover fascinating stories from the past.  

Then relax with tea, scones and shared tales in The Workshop and celebrate the stories that shaped our region. Stay on for our Creative Wellbeing Session: Take a Moment in September, where you’ll be guided to draw historical objects from our collection accompanied by gentle music. It’s a unique opportunity to honour local history, share conversation, and find inspiration in the past through art.
