22.01.2022 We were researching untranslatable words from other cultures today, and this one in particular struck a chord.

18.01.2022 Thank you to all our new fans! We're getting so much love. Check out our video from last year, and please spread the "word".

18.01.2022 If you enjoy SMOW and how free it is, don't forget to exit through the gift shop and grab a limited edition print on your way out.

17.01.2022 There's nothing better than contemplating life in SMOW on a rainy Sunday. We're here, we're free, and we promise to make you laugh.

15.01.2022 We hosted a book launch for Word Travels last night. What an amazing group of performance artists! And it's just the start of many book worm festivities to come.

14.01.2022 Laugh AND learn at Sydney Museum of Words (73 George St, The Rocks).

14.01.2022 And that's a wrap! Thank you to The Rocks for the beautiful views and the incredible 4510 visitors who laughed at and/or with us. We'll never forget it.

13.01.2022 We're an insightful bunch.

11.01.2022 These guys left a balloon at our door this morning. How delightful.

10.01.2022 We opened SMOW today to find a local resident serenading us with this song. Best morning here so far.

10.01.2022 The Sydney Museum of Words comes to its end today. If you haven't had the chance to visit our free, hilarious space, pop in today at 73 George St, The Rocks. We would like to thank the RocksPopUp for this beautiful and iconic space.

10.01.2022 We'll take this on the chin, Craig.

09.01.2022 We are closed Easter long weekend. Back on Wednesday the 23rd, and open for another month and a half after that!

08.01.2022 It's almost closing time, which is when this definition comes alive!

06.01.2022 Have you had your daily dose? We've only been open 2 minutes, and already 14 people through the door! Good morning Sydney!

05.01.2022 Getting ready to install SMOW early next week at the new location in The Rocks!

05.01.2022 Expanding vernacular, one word at a time.

04.01.2022 What a stunning morning in The Rocks! Our producer almost fell into the sea taking this photograph, but not to worry! The food market is getting ready around the corner from us at SMOW, and there are plenty of comfort foods to go around.

04.01.2022 Want to support SMOW, but only for something in return? Come on over and get your (possibly signed) copy of 'Girt', Winner of the 2014 Indie Award for Non-Fiction. Very funny stuff, and I'm assuming it's all true?...It's great! The footnotes are consistently hilarious. - @Mr_Schofield, Matthew Schofield, a director of The Simpsons on Twitter. Girt is a ripping read a humorous history that is accessible enough to share with the eight-year-old. Hunts writing interests spa...n comedy, politics and history, a happy triumvirate when your subject is Australia. - Stephen Romei in The Australian. "Girt cuts an irreverent swath through the facts, fools, fantasies and frauds that made this country what it is today, hoisting sacred cows on their own petards and otherwise sawing the legs off Lady Macquaries chair. I was transported." - Shane Maloney, The Age Best Books of 2013.

04.01.2022 We wonder where this publication got their quotes from? Another reminder of the importance of words, especially when it comes to honest, Australian journalism. We'll still take the publicity, obviously.

02.01.2022 Our producer Tania is in this morning, and having a good old fashioned lol reading Girt. Come on down and ask as many questions about SMOW as you like! Unless they're complicated.

01.01.2022 For all of our new friends, here are some lovely pictures from our launch last November.

01.01.2022 Word of the day - Wanion. As in, "Marry, come up with a wanion !" cried Friar Tuck, bustling forward and thrusting himself in front of the Bishop.
