Community Chats: Haymarket and Ultimo
- Wednesday 28 October from 1pm to 2pm
As part of the City of Sydney Archives 50th anniversary celebrations, join us for a special look into the rich history of Haymarket and Ultimo.
Archivists Jill Farish and Jennifer Palmer will guide a relaxed conversation showcasing historical gems from our collections, including our rare Demolition Books documenting long-lost streetscapes, letters, early maps and more.
You'll also have the opportunity to view some original archival material.
We aim to present inclusive and accessible events. If you have any particular access or communication needs please contact Pine Street Creative Arts Centre on 02 9265 9333 or pinestreet@cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au.
