Mr Grant said the works will include new and upgraded displays and installation of solar electricity.

“I’m delighted our Government has been able to support this worthwhile project which will enable the museum to expand its offerings for visitors,” Mr Grant said.

“As home to one of Australia’s oldest aerodromes, Narromine has a rich aviation history. The museum details this history through aircraft, artefacts and photographs. 

“This fit-out project will further improve the museum which underwent a major extension in 2016.”

Minister for Racing Paul Toole said the project is one of 26 across NSW funded from the latest round of the Club grants category three infrastructure grants program.  

Mr Toole said the NSW Government is pleased to provide this funding which is delivering modern facilities so local communities across NSW can enjoy a wider range of cultural experiences

“We improved the program in 2017 by giving community organisations more chances to apply for a wider range of projects,” Mr Toole said. “New funding ranges are encouraging more diverse projects, and a streamlined application process is cutting red tape and allowing for faster assessment.”
