George Town Memorial Hall

The George Town Memorial, situated at 29-67 Macquarie Street, was laid on April 21, 1959, by the Premier of Tasmania, the Honourable E. E. Reece, and M. Hammond, the Warden.

Over the years, the Memorial Hall has been a central hub for various community and school events. It boasts a main room with a stage, a kitchen, three smaller rooms, and the Jim Mooney gallery, which always features something intriguing on display. Among its exhibits are the Bicentenary Community Quilts, showcasing local craftsmanship.

Additionally, visitors can tune into the local radio station from within the premises.
