Celebrate Easter Monday with Local Culture and Community

As the Easter long weekend draws to a close this Monday, 6 April 2026, Albury remains a hive of activity with several verified events perfect for families, art lovers, and those looking to soak up the final hours of the holiday. From interactive museum exhibits to community gatherings at local landmarks, there is plenty to see and do before the working week resumes.

Step Back in Time at the Albury LibraryMuseum

For those seeking a blend of science and creativity, the Albury LibraryMuseum is hosting the standout exhibition "How to Draw a Dinosaur." This family-friendly showcase invites visitors to explore the intersection of paleontology and art. Unlike traditional scientific displays, this exhibition encourages you to use your imagination to visualize the colors and patterns of prehistoric creatures. It is a fantastic way to engage children in a hands-on learning environment.

While at the LibraryMuseum, you can also explore "Local Threads: A History of Macquarie Textiles in Albury." This exhibition provides a deep dive into the city's industrial heritage, showcasing the history of the Macquarie Textiles factory which was a cornerstone of the local economy for decades. Through a collection of historic objects, documents, and personal stories, visitors can learn about the craft and community that defined Albury's manufacturing past.

Final Call for the Border Bash

Monday marks the final day of the Border Bash at Thirsty Devil Brewery. This multi-day community event concludes today, offering a relaxed atmosphere for locals and visitors to gather. Located on the northern side of the city, the brewery has been a central hub for live music and local social interaction throughout the Easter period. It is an ideal spot for a casual afternoon meetup to enjoy the local hospitality before the holiday concludes.
