Brewarrina Aboriginal Cultural Museum has received an influx of visitors within the past 12 months with their daily tours heavily booked.

The Aboriginal Cultural Museum re- opened at the end of 2011 to start tours exploring the site, which holds great importance to the Aboriginal people of north- west New South Wales for tens of thousands of years.

Bradley Hardy, Brewarrina Aboriginal Cultural Museum's Chairman and tour guide says that the museum is having visitors from all over Australia ringing to book for their daily tours.

"We have been having a lot of visitors of all ages from Victoria, Queensland and New South Wales",

"It has been great to see so many people wanting to learn more about Indigenous Australia's history",

"Within our tours we explore through ancient traditional storytelling of the Ngemba, Ualarai, Weilwan and Baranbinja people," Mr Hardy said.

Tours explore the history of Brewarrina, taking place in both the inside and outside of the museum. 

"We take visitors around the inside of the museum first explaining the importance of a lot of Aboriginal artifacts, medicines and artworks. We then go outside where visitors will see the fish traps",

"The fish traps are important because they are Nationally and State Heritage listed and are where local tribes gathered for over 30,000 years. The museum overlooks the Barwon River where the fish traps reside",

"The story of the tour is fraught with emotion- visitors experience deep sadness, anger, wonder and laughter as well as a sense of the persistent dignity and survival of Indigenous Australians", Mr Hardy said.

Bradley is currently doing large tour groups of over 50 people per tour. Tours go for 1-2 hours, and run 4 times a day for 12 months of the year.

"We have had lots of large groups come to take part in the tours including school students, university students, tourists and bus groups. It is a large mixture of both young and old tourists and visitors", he said.

The Brewarrina Aboriginal Cultural Museum has been receiving lots of recognition for their outstanding interactive tours.

"We have received so many positive reviews both in person and online on our Facebook"

"Our comment books inside the museum are filled with positive comments and feedback which is really great", Mr Hardy said.

Within the walls of the unique structure of the Brewarrina Aboriginal Cultural Museum are traditional artefacts, local artworks and interactive displays.

In the future, Bradley hopes that the museum will attract more visitors so they can learn more about Brewarrina's extensive history.

"You can book online or walk straight in the door. You will not regret visiting the museum to learn about the history of Brewarrina, where many stories were once thought forgotten", Mr Hardy said.
