The Brisbane Water Historical Society’s next temporary exhibition, in accordance with the 2017 History Week theme of ‘Pop’, will be the ‘Stepping Out on the Coast’ exhibition.
This exhibition shines the spotlight on the most momentous local performances in history.
Many styles of entertainment have evolved over the years, and this exhibition asks the question: has it been the shows or the audiences that have made the biggest impact on popular culture?
History Week Open Day will take place on Saturday, September 9, at the Henry Kendall Cottage with a special guest presentation by Emeritus Prof Richard Waterhouse, School of Philosophical and Historical Inquiry, University of Sydney.
A light lunch and refreshments to follow
Entry by donation, all are welcome.
Stepping Out on the Coast will run from September 1 to November 30.
