Lecture – Working Lives: Stories from the Immigration Museum’s Collection

Melbourne Museum 11 Nicholson St, Carlton, VIC, Australia

Working life stories from the past and present told through the Immigration Museum’s diverse collections. Work remains a cornerstone of identity for many of us. Yet the ways we think about work continues to evolve.  Work can shape and share ideas of community, gender, memory, creativity, sexuality, activism, ethnicity, and our sense of individual and collective value. Work also acts as a thread that connects us to people, places, and other times.

The legacy of the Australian examples of the early 1900s is appreciated primarily by a popular culture that allocates value to these structures on aesthetic grounds. Several aspects of construction history associated with this early modern form of civil engineering have been less explored.
