SUMMARY:Gotcha! Concrete Prints from the McEwans Celebrity Pavement
DESCRIPTION:Who remembers the McEwans celebrity pavement? \nBetween 1972 and 1994\, scores of celebrities had their hand- and footprints immortalised in cement at the entrance of the McEwans hardware store in Bourke Street. Shopping for a hammer or a hair-dryer\, you’d step in the prints of actors\, musicians\, sportspeople\, writers\, dancers\, politicians\, an astronaut\, a racehorse – even an operatic dog. \nCurated by Robyn Annear\, ‘Gotcha!’ presents 40 of the surviving prints from the McEwans pavement\, together with stories of the celebrities who made them and newspaper images that capture the mood of the times. \nNote: enter City Gallery via Customer Relations\nMonday to Friday: 9am to 5pm

SUMMARY:Our Yarra River
DESCRIPTION:East Melbourne Historical Society Presents “Our Yarra River” \nPresenter: Ian Penrose \nIan is a former senior executive in the coal mining and gas industries\, but after 27 years he switched his focus to the natural environment. \nHe headed the Victorian Government’s program to restore the Snowy River with increased flows and bankside rehabilitation.

This role (of nine years) earned him the City of Melbourne’s 2010 “Melbourne Award for contribution to the environment” and (as co-winner) Boroondara’s 2015 “Citizen of the Year” award. \nIn his presentation Ian will share with us what he has learnt of the Yarra’s history\, and his thoughts about its future. \nWhen: Wednesday 19 Jun 2024 – 7:30pm \nLocation: East Melbourne Library\, 122 George Street\, East Melbourne \nEntry fee: Members free; non-members $5.00 \ntel: 0437 221 249\nemail: enquiries@emhs.org.au
