Smile Artist's home/studio moved and recreated

I just wanted to share this as I find it absolutely amazing and I intend to see it when I can get down that way.

Yesterday in northern New South Wales, Australia, a very special art centre was opened called The Margaret Olley Art Centre. Margaret Olley died a few years ago and she's one of our most famous and loved artists.

So what they've done is move approx. 21,000 objects from one part of the State to the other recreating 3 rooms of the artist's home. It's really interesting so if you have time, please take a look.
