SUMMARY:Walking Tour of Westgate Park with Lyn Allison
DESCRIPTION:Walking Tour of Westgate Park with Lyn Allison \nSunday 20th November 10.00 am to 12.00 pm \nOrganised by Port Melbourne Historical and Preservation Society Inc \nDo join our walking tour of Westgate Park with Lyn Allison. The community bus will leave from the Port Melbourne Town Hall at 9.30 am and will return at 12.30 pm.  If you would prefer to meet us at the main carpark at the entrance to the park at 10.00 am.  BYO water\, hat\, waterproof gear if needed. \nWhether you are taking the community bus\, or meeting at the Park\, please let George Tsingos know to help the outing run smoothly \nsecretary@pmhps.org.au \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWestgate Park is a green oasis located in the heart of industrial Melbourne. The park is perhaps best known for its salt lake which turns pink seasonally in response to high salt levels\, high temperatures\, increased sunlight and lack of rainfall. Visit during the hotter weather to see the reddish algae growing in the salt crust. The lake returns to its normal colour as the weather cools and rainfall increases. \nThe shared paths in Westgate Park are popular with cyclists\, joggers and walkers\, and connect to some significant trail networks of Melbourne\, including the 53km Bay Trail. The trail starts in Westgate Park at the Yarra River and heads all the way to Frankston\, along the eastern edge of Port Phillip Bay\, and is about 2.5 hours by bike\, each way. Travel via the bicycle punt service across the Yarra River (westgatepunt.com for timetable) to access Scienceworks and the Williamstown Foreshore Trail (6km\, 23 minutes one way). \nTake the unsealed trails in Westgate Park that wind past lakes and wetlands to see the park’s plants and animals\, as well as the Earth Series Sculptures. These artworks by Lyn Moore are made from natural materials and add to the unique landscape and character of Westgate Park. Pack a picnic or make use of the free shared electric barbecue facility and come and explore this beautiful environment at the city’s doorstep. \nWestgate Park forms a sanctuary for a variety of bird species from around the world. Watch the lake for wading birds such as stilts\, ibis and spoonbills feeding on the shores\, and swimmers and divers including ducks\, gulls\, coots\, pelicans\, swans and moorhens.

SUMMARY:Out of the Madhouse Forum
DESCRIPTION:Sandy Jeffs\, a former inmate of Larundel\, who became an advocate for her ‘mad’ comrades and is now a poet of distinction; and Margaret Leggatt\, sociologist\, occupational therapist and activist for the friends and families of mentally ill people.  \nLarundel Psychiatric Hospital was ‘the madhouse on the edge of town’ – until the 1990s\, a Melbourne cultural icon shrouded in mystery in the outer suburb of Bundoora. What was it really like inside this madhouse?  \nThis story takes us into the heart of Larundel through the voices of former inmates and staff\, exposing the best and worst aspects of the mental institutions of the times. It shows the shifts in psychiatric treatments\, the social forces at play\, and changes driving mental health policy. It explores what de-institutionalisation and ‘care in the community’ actually meant for those suffering mental illness\, as well as for those treating\, and caring for Them.  \nWhat did we lose with Larundel’s closure in 1999 and the move to acute psychiatric wards in general hospitals? The notion of asylum? Is the more recent notion of ‘recovery’ a hopeful signpost towards a brave new world for mental health?

SUMMARY:ACAHUCH Symposium : Parklife 2022
DESCRIPTION:The values ascribed to streets and landscapes\, buildings and places shift over time. Access\, interpretation and display have become crucial components in recognising and enacting conservation. \nThe landscape of Quor-nóng/Royal Park has been inhabited by First Peoples for millennia. Following colonisation\, Royal Park was reserved as a public park with neighbourhoods and institutions constructed on its edges. Park Life seeks to interrogate the impact of institutions such as the university\, hospitals\, a prison\, a major park and a zoo\, as well as local precincts. Parkville is a suburb of diverse building types surrounding Royal Park\, and home to major Melbourne institutions including the symposium host\, the University of Melbourne. Parkville has played a pivotal role in Australian understandings of heritage\, memory\, commemoration\, and dwelling. \nIn 1972\, South Parkville was declared Melbourne’s first historic area by the National Trust. This one-day symposium strives to examine how global and national understandings of heritage have been reflected in all parts of Parkville\, and what different meanings Parkville has come to take on since that time. \nKEYNOTE SPEAKERS \n\nProfessor Emeritus Miles Lewis AM\nAssociate Professor Shawana Andrews\n\nVENUE AND REGISTRATION \nThe symposium will be held (in a COVID-19 safe manner) at the University of Melbourne’s Glyn Davis (MSD) Building\, and involve a walking tour of Parkville. A $50 / $25 fee covering catering costs will apply for those attending in-person. Due to COVID-19 restrictions\, these arrangements are subject to change. \nCONTACT \nThe symposium team is David Nichols\, Catherine Townsend\, Hannah Lewi and Theo Blankley.\nEnquiries | ACAHUCH Coordinator : theo.blankley@unimelb.edu.au

SUMMARY:Royal Exhibition Building Dome Promenade
DESCRIPTION:For the first time in 100 years\, visitors will have the opportunity to ascend to the base of the Royal Exhibition Building’s majestic dome and experience breathtaking views of the Melbourne skyline. \nThe Royal Exhibition Building Dome Promenade will open to the public from Saturday 29 October 2022. \nAs the first Australian building to be awarded a UNESCO World Heritage Listing\, the Royal Exhibition Building has great historical and cultural importance\, not only to Melbourne\, but to all of Australia. \nThe highly anticipated new attraction was developed as part of a Federal Government budget commitment\, restoring integral aspects of the fabric of the building to protect and preserve its world and national heritage values. \nWith its origins steeped in the Marvellous Melbourne era\, the Royal Exhibition Building was built for the 1880 Melbourne International Exhibition\, embodying civic values and providing a majestic place where people\, culture and ideas could come together. \nThe Dome Promenade was a key attraction of both the 1880 and 1888 international exhibitions and operated as a commercial venture\, providing visitors the opportunity to view the Melbourne skyline in much the same way as will be offered from next month. \nWith the Protection & Promotion Project now complete\, Museums Victoria CEO & Director Lynley Crosswell says she is looking forward to the Promenade deck being open so the community will have the opportunity to enjoy the building’s remarkable Promenade view\, along with an exhibition that explores the building’s history and uses over the years. \n

SUMMARY:“Trust me on This”
DESCRIPTION:Event presented by the Fellows’ Group of the School of Historical and Philosophical Studies at the University of Melbourne \nSocial Trust is an important glue binding societies together.  For just one example\, countries with high trust levels had significantly better results in tackling Covid.  And trust has also been a powerful driver of economic development.  But there is another side – high levels of trust also create opportunities for the shyster\, those benefiting from spreading mistrust. \nIn this wide-ranging talk\, Tony Ward discusses the nature of social trust.  He also argues that some\, especially economic\, developments are now working to diminish trust. \nSpeaker: Tony Ward \nTony has been an Honorary Fellow in History at the University of Melbourne since 2011\, writing two books and numerous well-received articles\, both in journals and on The Conversation website.  He has had a varied work career\, in academia\, public service\, and running a private consultancy firm.  Tony has a Ph.D in economic history from Monash. \nSHAPS History Fellows’ Group \nThis presentation is part of the monthly seminar series organised by the Fellows’ Group of the School of Historical and Philosophical Studies at the University of Melbourne.  There is a $10 charge for attendance\, which includes refreshments.  Any surpluses contribute to a Prize Fund which supports an annual prize for history students. \nPlease note that\, on booking\, you will automatically be sent a confirmation email – please check your Junk or Spam mail folder if it is not immediately apparent in your in-box. Zoom log-in details will be sent to those attending via Zoom just 24 hours before the event. \nRefreshments are served from 5:30pm with the lecture and Zoom event due to start at 6pm.

SUMMARY:Lecture – Working Lives: Stories from the Immigration Museum’s Collection
DESCRIPTION:Working life stories from the past and present told through the Immigration Museum’s diverse collections. \n\nWork remains a cornerstone of identity for many of us. Yet the ways we think about work continues to evolve.  Work can shape and share ideas of community\, gender\, memory\, creativity\, sexuality\, activism\, ethnicity\, and our sense of individual and collective value. Work also acts as a thread that connects us to people\, places\, and other times. \nA new exhibition opening at Immigration Museum\, Working Lives highlights a range of stories from our Museum collections which explore the diversity of our working experiences across time. Curators\, collection managers and community storytellers will reflect on a selection of these stories\, objects and images and what they tell us about how we have collected\, documented and continue to develop our Museum collections through community engagement. \nMelbourne Museum is hosting a great talk based on the exhibition – please note that the exhibition is at the Immigration Museum\, however the talk is being held at the Melbourne Museum \nTickets for the talk can be booked here \n\n\n\n\n$5 / $8 / $10 / $12\n\n\nSpeakers\nMichelle Stevenson\, Head History & Technology Dept \nDeb Tout-Smith\, Senior Curator\, Home & Community Life \nDr Moya McFadzean\, Senior Curator\, Migration & Cultural Diversity \nLorenzo Iozzi\, Manager\, Image Collections \nNyadol Nyuon OAM\, Executive Director\, Sir Zelman Cowan Centre\, Victoria University; former refugee & lawyer\, writer & human rights activist

Within a short period of 35 years\, the small village\, first known as Warringal and later as Heidelberg\, had grown from a few scattered houses into a flourishing community. Heidelberg became a Shire in 1871\, then a City in 1934. The City of Banyule was established in 1994. \nPresented by Yarra Plenty Regional Library\nIvanhoe Library & Cultural Hub\,\n275 Upper Heidelberg Road\, Ivanhoe\, Vic. \nImage: Heidelberg Road\, Looking South Ivanhoe\, State Library Victoria
