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:Fatal Contact: Introduced epidemics among Australia’s Colonial Australian First Nations
DESCRIPTION:The RHSV is delighted that Peter Dowling has accepted our invitation to speak on this very topical issue. \nThis talk explores the devastating infectious diseases introduced into the Indigenous populations of Australia after the arrival of the British colonists in 1788. Epidemics of smallpox\, tuberculosis\, influenza\, measles and sexually transmitted diseases swept through the indigenous populations of the continent well into the twentieth century. \nMany historians have acknowledged that introduced diseases caused much sickness and mortality and were part of the extreme population decline following colonisation. But few writers have elaborated further and much of this history is still missing\, even after more than 200 years. Most accounts begin with the 1789 smallpox epidemic at the Sydney settlement and go no further. Our knowledge and understanding of the biological and social consequences surrounding the meeting and contact of these two cultures has not yet been fully investigated. It was\, and still is\, the greatest human tragedy that Australia has ever experienced. \nPeter Dowling is the author of Fatal Contact. How Epidemics Nearly Wiped Out Australia’s First Peoples\, (Monash University Publishing\, 2021).He holds a PhD in archaeology and biological anthropology from the Australian National University. Dr Dowling has written and lectured on Australian history\, archaeology\, Indigenous and European biological contact history and Australian cultural heritage assessment. He dabbles in military history and has organised and led local\, national\, and overseas tours in history\, archaeology and heritage. In a previous life Dr Dowling spent twenty years in signals intelligence with the Royal Australian Navy. He now lives quietly but busily in retirement with his wife and visiting bird families in the Tuggeranong Valley of Canberra. \nLike all RHSV lectures\, this event will be offered both in person at the RHSV’s Drill Hall home at 239 A’Beckett St\, Melbourne and via ZOOM. \nFor those attending in person\, refreshments will be served from 5:30pm until 6pm when the lecture starts. The Zoom coverage will start at 6pm too. \nAll those who register will be sent an automatic confirmation email of your ticket purchase – if you don’t receive this please check your Spam or Junk Mail folders. The ZOOM details will be sent to those attending via ZOOM 24 hours before the lecture.

SUMMARY:Chinese Market Gardens from Coburg to Bentleigh
DESCRIPTION:Glen Eira Historical Society’s Speaker Series this month is a talk by Terry Young on Chinese Market Gardens from Coburg to Bentleigh.  \nTerry is Vice President of Chinese Australian Family Historians of Victoria (CAFHOV) and spent the first year of his life in a Coburg Market garden. His Chinese father and grandfather were both market gardeners. In order to better understand the life of his forebears\, he has spent recent years researching the life of market gardeners and discovering the locations of market gardens across the suburbs of Melbourne.\nThis presentation will give an overview of the life of this mostly forgotten group\, who had an influence on early 20th century cuisine. They were a critical part of a vast green grocery business network supplying vegetables to Melbourne. Where did they come from and where did they go? This talk will discuss market gardens of Melbourne but also include more recent research of early Chinese market gardens in the Glen Eira District..\nAlso included will be an introduction to the Victorian CEDT Index project which won the Victorian Community History Award 2021.\nSupper provided. Drinks can be purchased from the bar before and after the presentation. Please arrive 7.15pm for 7.30pm start. Bookings not required.

SUMMARY:Cataloguing Clinics 2022
DESCRIPTION:CANCELLED – Due to National Day of Mourning Public Holiday for Queen Elizabeth II  \nJillian Hiscock\, the RHSV Collections Manager\, started these free cataloguing clinics during the early days of COVID and they suit Zoom very well. The clinics run for an hour from 11am – 12noon on the 4th Thursday of each month. It is a relaxed gathering of people who are finding their way through the intricacies of cataloguing material in historical collections which\, as we all know\, fall between a library and a museum with sometimes a bit of art gallery thrown in.  With our membership scattered across Australia please remember that this is Melbourne time – AEDT in summer and AEST in winter. \nJillian always prepares some material on some specific queries but questions are encouraged and\, remember\, a problem shared is a problem halved. The clinics are conversational in format rather than a seminar. If you are new to cataloguing\, or an old hand\, you will find plenty to interest you in these sessions. Jillian often has material which is emailed out to attendees after the clinic. \nThe remaining clinics in 2022 will be held (via Zoom) on: \n\n        Sep 22\, 2022 11:00 AM\n        Oct 27\, 2022 11:00 AM\n        Nov 24\, 2022 11:00 AM\n\nJoin Zoom Meeting \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/85662066892?pwd=L2REVUhtZmtHblM0ZjV0ZDNxN3FkUT09 \nMeeting ID: 856 6206 6892 \nPasscode: 227214 \nAlthough\, we provide the Zoom details above\, please do remember to register otherwise we cannot email you material after the event.
