The city of Maitland’s architectural landscape has changed seemingly with each decade.

In the Maitland Historical Museum, Building Maitland examines the architectural evolution that the city has undergone in the last century.

The Exotic Realms of Jules André Smith  explores Smith’s extensive body of work, including paintings, watercolors, sculptures, concrete reliefs, theatre set designs, architectural drawings and architectural ornamentation.
