The Langtree Hall Museum is Mildura's first public hall built in 1889. An important link in Mildura's Heritage. When first built last century, the Hall was located in Langtree Avenue, next to a bake house. The first use for the hall was as an assembly hall for roller-skating and it quickly became the centre's first Public Hall. By the year 1889 it was put to use for a variety of purposes including the holding of cases in the Court of Petty Sessions. In those days, Police personnel came from Yelta until the Mildura Courthouse was built in 1892. It was also used for musical nights for dances and concerts, Church Services and a newspaper printing office. In 1936 the hall changed into a Billiards Room. In the hall and cottage visitors will now find a fascinating range of history, from the vast collection by the Cornell's of almost 1300 international dolls to items of interest such as christening gowns, gramophones, restored furniture and photo album going way back in time. Langtree Hall Museum displays local history and International Dolls. Come and reminisce about the past, or come and discover it!! There is something for all ages at the Langtree Hall Museum. There is wheelchair access through Restored Cottage and Hall, for more details please contact Langtree Hall Museum.

The Mildura Brewery began life in late 1924 as the Astor Theatre. The theatre was purchased with the Mildura Grand Hotel by Don Carrazza and his family in 1989. By December 2004 the Mildura Brewery was officially opened. It features a state-of-the-art brewery that is on full display to patrons and produces six permanent naturally brewed beers, along with unique seasonal brews. The beers are inspired by and named after local produce, landmarks and themes. The Pub is the best location to try Mildura Brewery beers, straight from the keg or the stubby, individually or on a tasting tray. The refurbished space pays tribute to its art deco past with an impressive bar, original decorative panels from the Astor days plus the smell and taste of popcorn to set the scene. Guests can loll in the lounge tub chairs or look forward to Stefano's simple, flavoursome fare in the dining room. This is a great meeting place for drinks, light food or an easy meal any day of the week. Mildura Brewery is home to live music Sundays from 4 to 7pm as well as 'Cool Cocktails' in their Theatre Club every Friday from 9pm, for more information on upcoming events view their Facebook page.

The Art Vault is an international standard arts facility housing three galleries, etching and lithography printmaking workrooms, 10 artist studios and two artist in residence apartments. It provides a unique environment for the Mildura community by bringing together local, indigenous, national and international artists in a venue that encourages artwork production, workshops, special events and exhibitions. Situated in regional north, west Victoria, The Art Vault is one of Australia's leading privately operated arts facilities, which opened in 2008. A great emphasis is placed on education about the visual arts through tours, talks, workshops and information so that they can develop a community more informed and engaged with the arts. The Art Vault is much more than a retail shop or gallery, they offer their customers a unique experience via an ever changing exhibition schedule. Visitors are encouraged to meet the artists and view artwork being produced, explore the old bank vaults which store artworks on vertical racks and peruse original prints in their folders. Meeting and talking to the artists enriches the experience of the visit, adding value and meaning to any art that is purchased. The Art Vault provides a learning experience where people can gain knowledge and discover a whole new and interesting world of visual communication which is the most used language in our society but the least taught and understood.
