Art Gallery of South Australia Tours
For some time now Postcards had been on the Internet. Our website has details on the hundreds of stories we've covered across South Australia. Of course this is but one of the many stops along the information superhighway. We thought we'd take a quick look at some of the great local websites starting with the Jam Factory where you can not only order local crafts but learn about the process and the artists involved.
The Art Gallery of South Australia has quality reproductions of many works in their collection and details about them. They also have information about exhibitions.
Similarly the State Library has pages about its collection and from here it's easy to search the Mortlock Library of South Australiana. Part of the Library's site includes the neighbouring Bradman Collection where you can log on and hear the great batsman, discuss his career and see some of the best moments.
When it comes to history a panoramic photo take of Adelaide in 1865 can be downloaded onto your computer. It's a copy of the Townsend Duryea which is currently displayed in the Adelaide Arcade. If your a food lover then Graeme Andrews has a site which is constantly updated with seasonal details about food and wine in South Australia particularly around the Central Market.
The Salisbury Council has a terrific website that not only deals with things like rates and rules but provides information about attractions in the area such as the St Kilda Mangroves and the wetlands. Further away Wilpena Pound has a site that shows off the Flinders ranges and also has booking details.
And finally the Metropolitan Fire brigade has its own site which is a superb bank of information about how to deal with fires in the home and prevent them from happening in the first place. For details on these sites you can log onto www.postcards-sa.com.au
