Heide Museum of Modern Art in Hamilton welcomes thousands on thousands of visitors annually, for an inspirational, educational and insightful experience of both contemporary and modern art, landscape and architecture. Starting life in 1934 as the home of John and Sunday Reed, Heide Museum of Modern Art has since grown into one of the most important cultural institutions in Australia. With its constantly changing program of exhibits, the museum displays works from not only the Heide collection, but also from private and public collections and individual artists. Through various generous donations and individual gifts, Heide Museum of Modern Art has been able to expand its already vast collection of paintings, drawings and sculptures. Although the museum places emphasis on Australian art, they have always made international artists a vital part of their program, with works by Picasso, Henry Moore, and works from Thailand, Philippines and Vietnam.

Heide Landscape is six hectares of gardens and parklands at Heide Museum of Modern Art, Bulleen, Australia, and is open to the public all year round. These gardens have been developed over many years, in conjunction with the museum. Originally a run down, treeless dairy farm, the new owners, John and Sunday Reed immediately took action and started a kitchen garden and also initiated a expansive planting program of exotic trees, and enhanced the circular driveway with a lavender hedge and fragrant ornamental flowers and roses. The aim of John and Sunday Reed was to create an informal park forest. In 1936 the Reeds included native plants in their garden, and to this day the Heide kitchen gardens are still functional and supply the cafe with fresh produce on a daily basis. Today Heide Landscape gardens are enjoyed by families and includes a sculpt park as well as several of the original, heritage listed, gardens.
