Online & Offline Come Together at MONA | Social Rabbit

Good afternoon, Social Rabbit here with your guide to the world of social media. Last week I visited MONA – the Museum of Old and New Art in Hobart, Tasmania (Tasmania for the non-Aussie’s reading this is an island off the mainland of Australia).
