A Trip to Heide Museum and Gardens
Get your culture fix with a weekend visit to this art institution.
Overview
The Heide Museum of Modern Art is one of Melbourne's most significant cultural institutions — with a history that dates back to 1934 and an exhibition program that often plays host to some of the biggest names in Australian art. Boasting 15 stunning acres in Bulleen, it's a prime spot for laidback weekend adventures. We suggest you spend a blissful Saturday out here, browsing the architecturally stunning galleries, exploring the mid-century Heide house, and cruising through the sculpture park while moseying among the lush green grounds. When lunchtime rolls around, be sure to hit Shannon Bennet's on-site Café Heide for some top-notch coffee and seasonal fare courtesy of the nearby kitchen garden.
