About Wedgwood 'Artists and Industry'

Townsville is the exclusive Australian destination in 2025 for an iconic collection of Wedgwood ceramics.

Wedgwood: Artists and Industry showcases highlights from over 200 years of Wedgwood — straight from the UK’s Victoria and Albert Museum. Wedgwood: Artists and Industry tells the story of this household name and its enduring global impact.

Wedgwood: Artists and Industry is self-guided so that you can go at your own pace. The exhibition is displayed over two levels of the gallery and contains around 150 objects. We advise allocating around an hour to explore and discover. Weekday sessions allow for three to three-and-a-half hours for you to view the exhibition, while weekend tickets allow for three hours.

• Tuesday to Friday
• Session 1 10am- 1.30pm
• Session 2 1.30pm- 4.30pm
• Saturday & Sunday
• 10am-1pm
• CLOSED MONDAY
