    11am First Nations works free tour with Frances was wonderful. "I love contemporary art because the gloves are off." Fierce and super smart.

    The building itself is the attraction really. Don't miss the rooftop with the view on the quay.

    The museum is free of entrance, so I'd recommend paying a visit. Don't forget to check the café out

    Circular Quay is home not only to the Opera House, but one of the most important institutions, the Museum of Contemporary Art, which holds a dress circle location overlooking Sydney Harbor.

    As some parts of MCA are free of charge, it's a nice 'drop-in' whenever you are in the area
