SUMMARY:Launch of Our New Houses Journal
DESCRIPTION:The new Houses journal covers\, in detail\, twelve houses and their occupants\, with copious illustrations. It is a follow up to our 2018 publication\, Houses of the Ashfield District. The preparation of this publication was supported by an Inner West Council grant.  \n\n\n\nMembers will be able to collect their copy of the new Houses journal at this event. \n\n\n\nTo launch this Journal\, Society Member Dennis McManus PSM will speak on heritage in the Southern Highlands \n\n\n\nHeritage in the Southern Highlands\n\n\n\nThis illustrated talk provides a background to a recent 2021-2023  Wingecarribee Shire Community Heritage Study. The illustrations will confirm that\, like Ashfield\, the heritage of the Shire is no accident. It is the result of people who had both the ideas and resources to employ competent and sometimes renowned local and Sydney based architects\, builders and others to make their dream a reality. Like Ashfield\, the work of local historians has been of major assistance to the Shire Council in providing the best possible advice to ensure informed heritage management. \n\n\n\nDennis is an Hon. Heritage Consultant and Retired Senior Officerof the NSW Heritage Council. He was awarded a Public Service Medal in 1997 for services to Heritage Conservation in NSW.  Dennis wrote a 21 page article on Victoria Square\,  Ashfield and his home\, Portland House\,  for the 2018 Houses of the Ashfield District. \n\n\n\nRefreshments provided. \n\n\n\nRegistration Required. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue: Summer Hill Community Centre\, 131 Smith Street\, Summer Hill

SUMMARY:South Flows the Pearl: Australian Chinese Voices
DESCRIPTION:明珠南流：澳大利亚华人之声 \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn the late 1980s Mavis Gock Yen began interviewing elderly Chinese Australians from all around Australia\, recording hours of conversations.These fascinating and absorbing stories of the struggles and successes of Chinese in Australia\, told in their own words\, have been edited by Siaoman Yen and Richard Horsburgh. 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. A rich exploration of the Chinese Australian contribution to the development of Australia from the goldrush of the 1850s to the current day.Perth-born Mavis Gock Yen (1916-2008)\, moved with her family to Shanghai in 1925 and spent time in China and Australia over the next twenty years. 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
