SUMMARY:KALEIDOSCOPE
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition is biography imagined through the lens of a Kaleidoscope. The viewer is offered fragments of the lives represented here. There is no linear narrative. Each time the kaleidoscope turns\, a different story emerges. There are repeating patterns but different emphases and new ways of seeing\, new reflections\, new refractions. No one story dominates and one story does not fit all. \nin 2021\, during Women’s History Month we launched the RHSV Women’s Biographical Dictionary\, an online resource which builds profiles of women who have been involved in the RHSV over its 113 year history. This project is the work of Dr Cheryl Griffin and from this online resource\, Cheryl has curated Kaleidoscope\, launched in March 2022 by Judi Maddigan\, which looks at the lives of 50 of those important women. \nCURATOR: DR CHERYL GRIFFIN\nEXHIBITION DESIGNER: KATRIN STROHL\nEXHIBITION PRODUCTION: DR DAVID THOMPSON & HELEN STITT\nThe exhibition is opened Monday – Friday (excluding public holidays) from 9am-5pm and entry is free-of-charge.

SUMMARY:Portable Buildings talk\, briefing & lunch
DESCRIPTION:This briefing session\, talk & lunch is an invitation-only event. Invitations have been sent to all historical societies which have portable buildings in their area. This event is only open to people representing one of the historical societies that have been invited to attend. Please do not RSVP unless you have been invited.\nCharles Sowerwine\,  RHSV Councillor\, Chair of the RHSV Heritage Committee and member of the Portable Buildings World Heritage Nomination Task Force\, invites local historical societies who have portable buildings in their area to become involved in the task force’s campaign to nominate Australia’s unique stock of portable buildings for UNESCO World Heritage status. \nTo qualify for the listing\, nineteenth-century buildings must be portable; that is buildings made in other countries and shipped to Australia for assembly here. \nAt last count\, there are 104 such buildings still standing in Australia\, more than anywhere else in the world. The majority of these buildings – 64 of them – are in Victoria\, in part because the Gold Rush created immense demand for buildings. World heritage listing would not only protect this precious heritage but would also be a boon for tourism. \nThe Hon Barry Jones AC launched the campaign in April 2021. If you’re curious\, read“‘Extraordinary’: Push for 19th century prefabricated buildings to be added to World Heritage List” (The Age\, 15 April 2021). More information is on the web site of the Portable Buildings World Heritage Nomination Task Force (portablebuildingsaustralia.org). (click on either heading above to read more) \nWe’re asking local historical societies to help us gather vital information about buildings in their areas to be included in our submission to UNESCO. To begin the work\, we invite you and all interested parties to a meeting Wednesday 24 August\, from 11am to 2pm\, at the RHSV Drill Hall\, 239 A’Beckett St\, Melbourne 3000 (also via Zoom). The meeting will include an illustrated talk on portable buildings by Professor Miles Lewis\, a general discussion and a light lunch. You will find the draft programme below. \nAt the meeting\, we will explain how to fill in a questionnaire about portable buildings in your area. \nDraft Programme \nBuilding our Case for World Heritage Nomination of Portable Buildings \nDrill Hall\, 239 A’Beckett Street\, Melbourne \nWednesday\, 24 August 2022 \n11am                       Registration and tea/coffee \n11:10am                 Welcome on behalf of the RHSV (Charles Sowerwine\, Chair\, Heritage Committee) \n11:15am                  Welcome on behalf of the Taskforce (Tony Isaacson\, President) \n11:20-12noon        Illustrated talk on Portable Buildings in Victoria by Professor Miles Lewis \n12-12:30pm          Q & A with Taskforce members.
