Yugambeh Museum websites are undergoing a major reconstruction with funds from Events Queensland. Changes will include online ticketing and sales, designed to ease the burden on administration staff.
The new website should be available by late June 2011, and is being constructed with consultant group Gemini Tiger.
The Yugambeh Museum regulary holds local Indigenous Community & Police meeting.
The aim of these meetings is to promote & develop a genuine partnership between between the local Indigenous Community and the local police, in order to identify and resolve local issues.
These meetings are held bi-monthly.

The annual Yugambeh Corroboree, Food Art and Language Festival has changed dates for 2011. Although traditionally held at the end of The Drumley Walk, this year the two events have separated. Yugambeh Corroboree will now be held in October, Sunday 16 (awaiting confirmation). This is part of a suite of changes which will see The Drumley Walk four day walking festival move to a new calendar position to coincide with the Labour Day long weekend in May, 2012.
It’s proudly presented by the Yugambeh Museum.
