2026 marks a significant milestone for the State Library. For 200 years, it has been a place of curiosity — its history as rich and layered as the stories held within our collection.
This year, they are presenting a year-long program that reflects on the surprising and transformative moments that have shaped this extraordinary institution. These moments come to life through a compelling series of exhibitions, installations, talks and performances, made possible with the generous support of the State Library Foundation. And what’s a major milestone without an Open Day? Save the date of Sunday 19 April for a full day of fun and activities for the whole family.
Libraries have never been more vital in our communities, and 2026 is our time to come together to celebrate this Library and contribute to its evolving story.
