The Museum of Intrepid Exploration is the studio, gathering space and ongoing art project of Nicole Buckland, an artist and occupational therapist with a deep curiosity about how we experience and make sense of the world.
The Museum is dedicated to the belief that making art is one of the most delightful ways we have of knowing ourselves. It celebrates the joyful exuberance of the inner child and holds space for those who move through the world differently, for whom creativity is a way of making sense.
There is room here for daily creative devotion and for the quiet discoveries that emerge when we let our hands lead. It is an open invitation to kindred spirits to gather and create together.
Visitors are welcome. Book into a workshop or private creative session, or make an appointment to drop by.
