The museum’s display includes information about Harold Blair, a renowned tenor who grew up on the Purga Aboriginal Mission; and Meta Maclean, an Australian composer, radio broadcaster, and author, who grew up in the Fassifern/Ipswich area. 

‘The Purga Music Story and Harold Blair’ is a community education package that was developed to engage people with the music history of the area. People of all ages are encouraged to participate in music experiences at Purga. This may involve playing instruments, singing, or telling stories about music history and culture at community social events. The aim is for young and old to share their ideas and collaborate on music projects that will benefit local communities. 

This centre has full disability access and is located beside the heritage-listed Purga United Church (est. 1921), and the Purga State School (est. 1871). 

An occupational therapist /ethnomusicologist provides consultancy about local music history, community cultural development, music health and well-being, and music research on a fee-for-service basis.
