Kununurra Historical Society (KHS) 
Remembering Them - A Grave in the Long Grass
This new exhibition opens at the Kununurra Museum on May 5th then ongoing.
For more detail see the Kununurra Events Page at... This year of 2018 marks the centenary of the end of World War I and these exhibitions were initially researched and devised locally, then, with thanks to further research by the Royal WA Historical Society, the panels were professionally designed with collaboration between each Society (Kununurra & Wyndham) and staff of the WA Museum and Museums & Galleries Australia WA. There is also a museum quality showcase for each of the Kununurra and Wyndham Museums. The Remembering Them project that has been in progress since 2014 (to 2018) to commemorate the 1914-1918 WWI centenary) has been generously funded by Lottery West and the WA Government. Thanks go to the Army Museum (Fremantle) WA for temporary display objects of the 10th Light Horse (for Kununurra Museum), as well as the WA State Records Office for images of the 'cancelled public plans' and the State Library of Western Australia who supplied photographs (& plans) for use on the history exhibition panels. http://www.kununurra.org.au/events |
