Tempest Opening Night

Deep within the darkness of the museum, a storm is gathering momentum, prowling and pacing and racing like a trapped animal, looking for release, lashing at confinement, barely contained...

Drawn like lost sailors to this rising crescendo, lured by The Siren’s Call, Acts of Betrayal, and Nature’s Fury, are wild souls with clouded judgment, ready to be swept up in the maelstrom of desire and the divine on this isolated island of unfathomable temper…

To celebrate the opening of Tempest, TMAG is presenting a special event to coincide with the opening of Dark Mofo 2016.

The museum will come alive with sounds, light, music and entertainment.

There will be something special happening every hour during the evening and there will also be plenty of delicious food and drink to warm you up.

Be amongst the first to experience the magical world of Tempest and go in to the eye of the storm.

Date: Friday 10 June
Time: 5:00 pm – 10:00 pm
Entry: Free
