About this event

This isn't a gig — it's a Melbourne Museum exhibition exploring Ancient Rome from the 1st to 3rd centuries CE. Over 180 objects from Italian collections, including statues, mosaics, frescoes, jewellery and everyday items, chart Rome's political, cultural and social life across the Imperial period. Open 9am–5pm daily, it's a Melbourne-exclusive showing stuff that's never left Italy before.
