Together with the Genealogical Society of Victoria, National Archives of Australia and the Public Record Office of Victoria, the Immigration Museum presents a full day of fascinating talks and seminars to assist seniors in the fact finding missions and research around post World War II British migration to Australia.
Guests will relish in the rich stories, research tools and family history tips & tricks presented by expert historians and archivists, and hear about the forthcoming British Migrants: Instant Australians? exhibition from curators and British migrants.
Guests can attend as many talks as they please throughout the day and are welcome to view our wonderful exhibition program. You may also bring your own lunch to enjoy in our beautiful Museum atrium or Discovery Centre. Tea and coffee provided.
To reserve your place, email the Immigration Museum's Discovery Centre idc@museum.vic.gov.au or call us on 03 9927 2726. A full program will be emailed to guests prior to the event.
