City of Wanneroo Museum Collections

The City of Wanneroo Cultural Services team explores and celebrates creativity, imagination and our cultural heritage and history through our fantastic venues - Wanneroo Regional Museum & Community History Centre, Wanneroo Gallery and two beautifully preserved heritage houses, Cockman House and Buckingham House.

We research, preserve and develop the City of Wanneroo’s cultural heritage and history, sharing the stories of the district through our Collections and connecting contemporary life to that of past generations. We seek to bring people together across differences, building a strong, vibrant and shared identity.

Our collections reflect the social history of the region along themes of market gardening, migration, civic life, recreation and the deep connection to our long stretch of coastline. We are committed to telling the continuing stories of our First Nations peoples and providing a safe, welcoming, gathering place for people from all backgrounds.

Together with volunteers, we provide activities, programs and experiences through active engagement with visitors throughout the museum and heritage houses. Our dedicated Heritage Education team delivers a popular range of programs that make history come alive for generations of school children.
