SUMMARY:The Art Work and Handwritten Journals Of The First Fleeters
DESCRIPTION:Of the approximately 1\,400 people on the First Fleet of 1787–88\, the handwritten journals of only 11 have survived. These provide eyewitness accounts of the voyage to Sydney and the first years here. They record the interaction with the Aboriginal people. Written by men of different ranks\, each journal offers a unique perspective. Most were discovered only in the 20th century\, and one was only acquired by the State Library of NSW as late as 1995. In 2009\, the collection held in the Mitchell Library was included in the UNESCO Memory of the World Program. \nDates and Locations \nTuesday 16 June 2026 Canberra (ACT) \nClick on the location above for more details and to book tickets.

SUMMARY:Nightingales And Roses: The Art of Iran
DESCRIPTION:This lecture will focus on the cultural legacies of the Safavid and Qajar dynasties and discuss the extent to which they have informed contemporary art in Iran and the Persian diaspora. Using remarkable case studies\, we will review how Iranian art has made distinctive contributions to global art histories\, including architecture\, textiles\, painting\, photography and literature. We will also discuss the “Women\, Life\, Freedom!” movement as a social phenomenon through creative arts. The art of Iran is complex\, vast and diverse\, so this is designed to provide a compelling introduction for a lifetime of exploration. \nDates and Locations \nThursday 18 June 2026 Molonglo Plains (ACT) \nClick on your preferred location above for more details and to book tickets.
