SUMMARY:TOUR: ISLAMIC MUSEUM OF AUSTRALIA
DESCRIPTION:Join the RHSV for a curator’s tour of the Islamic Museum of Australia\, one of Melbourne newest museums. The tour will have special emphasis on the artistic and cultural heritage of Muslims in Australia. \nThe arrival of Muslim Macassan fisherman from Southern Sulawesi\, Indonesia on the Northern Australia coast in the early 1700s marked the beginning of a long-lasting trade relationship between the Macassans and First Nations people. Over time\, these communities developed a mutual respect for one another\, and shared cultural and religious traditions. Another section of the exhibition pays homage to the Afghan cameleers\, highlighting their important contributions to our country’s infrastructure and economy. \nThere is a delightful coffee shop in the museum if you wish to stay for lunch or coffee.
