The Mid West region, stretching from the desert to the sea and the islands of the Abrolhos, has a diversity of landscapes, wildflowers and wildlife. The largest gallery in the Museum explores the wonders of this natural diversity, as well as exploring the social history and the lives of the indigenous Yamaji people and the impact of European settlement, looking at themes such as transport, industry and regional development.
