This year marks 50 years since Cyclone Tracy hit Darwin as one of Australia’s worst recorded natural disasters. For over 40 years the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory (MAGNT) has included an exhibition acknowledging the destruction caused by Cyclone Tracy on local lives and the environment.
For the 50th anniversary, the space has been refreshed and built upon, ensuring the legacy of the event in Darwin’s history. The updated exhibit, Cyclone Tracy – 50 Years On, is now on display in the permanent Cyclone Tracy gallery. New technologies have been introduced to the space, allowing for an immersive experience.
