What are the approaches and issues in making migrant community histories?
Over the past ten years, the Community Gallery at Victoriaуs Immigration Museum has worked with over 54 groups to record, create and display their community's migration history, whether they came to Victoria 5 years or 150 years ago. Padmini Sebastian (Manager, Immigration Museum) will talk about approaches adopted and issues encountered when working with diverse communities to develop and present their exhibitions; public historian Peg Fraser will discuss some of the challenges she encountered when working with community members to shape stories for exhibition; and representatives of community groups who have presented exhibitions in the Community Gallery (including Patricia Kimtia from the Mauritian community) will reflect on the value and challenges of their experience working with the Museum.
Bookings required.
