... there is a consortium of museums with the Korean heritage trust, the Chinese Museum, the Jewish Museum, the immigration Museum and us have formed this consortium because we felt that the arts in Melbourne, or tourism in Melbourne is certainly spread through arts and museums but not through heritage museums.
