They form the basis of South Flows the Pearl: Chinese Australian Voices\, published by Sydney University Press in February 2022.The unique book with stories from across the country from Perth\, Broome\, Darwin\, Sydney and outback Queensland and New South Wales provides a new perspective on what it means to be an Australian with Chinese heritage.

In 1946 she settled in China where she worked as a journalist and English teacher until after the Cultural Revolution\, eventually returning to Australia in 1981 with her daughter Siaoman Yen.Mavis then began recording and writing this landmark pioneering oral history book which will change how you think about Australian history.Learn more about South Flows the Pearl from the book’s editor Richard Horsburgh. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRichard Horsburgh\n\n\n\nChang Family Tamworth c. 1912

SUMMARY:A Walk Through London Streets in Search of the Origin of our Victorian Italianate Legacy; a presentation by Mark Sabolch
DESCRIPTION:Registration for this event is closed.\n\n\n\nIn this pictorial presentation Mark will explore the varied examples of the Italianate architectural style as seen in London. \n\n\n\nThe Italianate style was very popular and versatile. Taking in the housing forms seen around Regents Park\, Belgravia\, Pimlico and Bloomsbury just after the turn of the nineteenth century and evolving as new estates extended into the Victorian growth areas in London’s south-east and north-west suburbs. \n\n\n\nTo what extent are the Victorian Italianate house styles we see in the Inner West derived from London housing? Mark will explore how the Victorian Italianate style evolved and consider possible translations from London to Sydney. This is a combined event of Ashfield and District Historical Society and Marrickville Heritage Society.
