 * Hello,
 * Thankyou, I have tried to update the information- can you pls assist with updating the information below:
 * Built as a Bicentennial project, Stockman's has survived droughts and flooding rains, witnessed 12,500 Outback sunsets, and welcomed three million travellers. Around 60,000 people visit each year, making it one of the most visited attractions in Outback Queensland.
 * Founder, artist and former stockman Hugh Sawrey’s vision was a memorial to the pioneers of Outback Australia, a dream shared by others, including the legendary R.M. Williams. Sawrey registered the business name in 1974, provided funding, and enlisted supporters Australia-wide – every state had a Stockman's fundraising chapter, with supporters passionately staging balls, dinners and events to raise money for its construction. Construction began in 1985 with the first stone laid by Slim Dusty, while a travelling circus loaned an elephant to raise the timber beams. From imposing arches reminiscent of the Sydney Opera House to thousands of sandstone slabs hand-cut by R.M. Williams himself, the building welcomes travellers honours the men and woman who built Australia’s rural heritage and cultural providence.
 * A proud sentinel in a flat arid landscape, rising up from the vast plains like a beacon – after many hours on the road, for visitors to Longreach the museum reflects the end of a drover’s long day: rest awhile, share a story, and make friends around the campfire. Stockman’s is 7.5 hours west of Rockhampton, halfway to Mount Isa to the northwest; and 13 hours (or a 1.75-hour flight) northwest of Brisbane. Many Outback Queensland visitors drive up leisurely from the south in the winter, 1,700km from Sydney and Adelaide, and 2,000km from Melbourne. Click here
 * Three floors, eleven exhibit spaces, 400 stories, and 30 emotive soundtracks by those who lived the experiences immerse visitors into the times and places where stories took place. At Stockman’s, storytelling takes centre stage, with heritage objects supporting the narratives, entwined with environmental soundscapes and music to deliver an immersive and personalised cultural experience.
 * Audio content linked to exhibits magically bubbles up in a visitor’s digital audio guide as they wander around the museum. Oral and written histories collected over thirty-three years sharing tales as far back as the 1800s have been embedded into a musical background produced by Indigenous musicians Troy Cassar-Daley and William Barton, and country musician Fanny Lumsden. History is a great teacher, but we learn in different ways, so visitors listen to the stories that appeal to them, or double tap their device to move on to another. Our visitors’ journey through the museum is their own, with no two sharing the same experience.
 * Our audio guide includes a solution for the hard of hearing: audio guides connect via Bluetooth to hearing aids and cochlear implants, and spoken narratives appear as text on the guide’s screen with digital scrubbing back and forth to rewind or fast-forward the transcribed content. Click here
 * Children’s experiences are more akin to Pokémon Go than, ‘I don’t want to go!’. Children are guided, educated, and entertained, becoming friends with the animated ‘Coil the kelpie, who helps them find Outback survival objects hidden around the museum in a treasure hunt. Coil challenges with a riddle clue and children then find the object using the gamified digital interface on their supplied iPod. The real winners are Mum and Dad, who can explore the museum at their own pace, or interact with their children using the digital technologies.
 * EXHIBITION WALK THROUGH Entry As visitors enter, they hear an excerpt from the poem. ‘Clancy of the Overflow’ to match the words in the light installation, ‘And the bush hath friends to meet him…’
 * Hugh’s Studio Visitors are introduced to the founder and his dream to celebrate the ‘unsung heroes’ of the Outback, ensuring their tales, and profound efforts in shaping the nation’s cultural heritage and economic fortunes, are not forgotten. Through the audio experience, Hugh is the visitor’s personal guide as they explore the museum.
 * Welcome Wall In this panoramic zone, visitors are immersed in an Outback station setting with interactive, friendly kelpies – try giving them a pat and see how they give chase!
 * Songlines and Stock Routes Many stock routes were built upon pathways travelled by Aborigines. Songlines reflects their connections to, and care for, Country. In this exhibit, Suzanne Thompson, a local Iningai custodian, welcomes visitors to Country as they take a seat around the waterhole and listen to stories from Aboriginal stockwomen.
 * Hawker and His Wares A visit from a hawker and his camel was a treat for isolated families, who relished the opportunity to buy small comforts: soaps, sewing kits, gloves, bonnets, boots, pots – and news.
 * Pioneer’s Hut A recreation of a pioneer’s slab hut handcrafted using the same techniques used by Australia’s first European settlers where visitors learn about pioneering women’s experiences, and how they made the Outback home.
 * Bushcraft ‘Making do’ and making things from scratch for self-sufficiency and survival required ingenuity, patience and dedication. Visitors meet makers of stock whips, boots, and saddles and watch a video of a stock whips being made.
 * Sheep’s Back Australia ‘rode the sheep’s back’ for 100 years, with wool our first export industry. Many legends are inspired by the competitive comradery of the blokes in the shearing sheds, and the tenacious spirit of those who first went Outback with their flocks
 * Gone Drovin’ Tales of instinct, skill, grit, determination, mate ship and luck (or lack thereof) are explored in this gallery of the Long Paddock, the long trips to take livestock to market.
 * Unsung Heroes Unsung Heroes is a projected light honour wall and interactive database, where visitors browse profiles of real-life Outback heroes. Over the course of each day, the name of each person in the Hall’s roll of heroes is beautifully rendered on the wall.
 * Furthest Corner, Finest Care Before the Flying Doctor there was little medical help for those in the Outback. Reverend John Flynn witnessed the daily struggle of pioneers in remote areas and had a vision to provide a ‘mantle of safety’ for them.
 * Living it Up Outback towns provide comfort and shelter, a place to ‘wet the whistle’, have a yarn, and catch up with the ‘bush telegraph’. The Outback Cinema is a place for visitors to relax while learning about music, dances, rodeos and boxing, represented onscreen through a diverse range of films including 'The Last Great Cattle Drive', 'Kidman's 70th Birthday Rodeo' and 'The Great Australian Campdraft'.
 * Finish up at the Pub with Some Beer A reference to Slim Dusty's "A Pub with No Beer" which became the first Australian single to become a gold record; the biggest-selling record by an Australian at the time. Visitors enjoy a pub yarn and appreciate the pivotal role of the humble Outback pub, featuring a working bar complete with Stockman's own Fire Extinguisher Lager, named after Jack Absalom's Outback survival tip: "In many cases, people have fire extinguishers in their car and do not realise this.…a can of beer."
 * Poets Corner The library is a multi-use space which accommodates events and public programs as well as enables visitors to read and reflect after their visit and listen to recordings of Outback poems. A rotating exhibition displays limited edition Hugh Sawrey prints, which are available in the gift shop. Anchored by a wool-classing table, the library includes works by authors such as Oodgeroo Noonuccal (Kath Walker), Henry Lawson, and Banjo Paterson.
 * Outback Entertainment Centre A quality, fit-for-purpose, undercover entertainment venue with grandstand seating 300 guests that caters for many different types of events and concerts. Its Outback-themed accessible homestead provides a bar, catering servery, dining facilities for 200 guests, and toilets.
 * Stockman’s Show The stockman's experience is brought to life in the Stockman's Life live show in the Outback Entertainment Centre. Visitors experience the action of a muster, witnessing the bond with working dogs as they round up sheep, listen to songs from the Outback, and experience the agility of the Australian Stock Horse, a hardy breed noted for its endurance, all while comfortably seated in an undercover grandstand.
 * Campdraft/Equine Arena The new outdoor campdraft and equine recreational facility will diversify Stockman's offering with a first-class venue for the community. The facility will provide a new source of revenue, and opportunities to engage with the community by hosting events such as rodeos/campdrafts, festivals, sporting events, and trade expos. 120.151.216.13 (talk) 04:00, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
