A colourful history of the Ballaarat Mechanics’ Institute and it’s people.

These tours are lead by volunteer tour guides.

Accessiblity – Note

Most of this tour is wheelchair accessible, however the tour does include entry into the BMI Basement, which is not wheelchair accessible. The tour does involve stairs, however a lift is available throughout (except to the basement). This tour is not Auslan interpreted, and the guide does not use any amplification system. Tour groups will enter dimly lit areas of the building under supervision of the guide.
