  • A celebration of the former Dunach School building and the people who have been associated with it

    Talbot Museum 17 Camp St, Talbot, VIC, Australia

    Extensive work has recently been done to restore the 1874 former Dunach School building, which is now part of Talbot Museum. This is almost finished and Talbot Arts & Historical Museum is planning a celebration and re-opening event for the morning of Saturday 4th March 2023, with the Museum to be open all day. We're particularly hoping to welcome people with personal or family ties to the building during its different phases of life - as the Dunach school but also serving that area as a local hall and church, as "Dunach" at Maryborough High School where it served as a stand-alone classroom, as part of the Talbot annexe of Maryborough Knitting Mill and also its more recent roles in the town and the museum. We're asking people to bring any related memorabilia with them on the day.
