Full description from organizer

Threads of Migration: The Stories that Connect Us Presented by ECCQ as a joint event with National Archives of Australia. Somewhere in an archive, there's a record with your community's name on it. A ship's arrival, a community meeting, a photograph nobody's looked at in decades. These records hold pieces of who we are, even when we've forgotten they exist. Join us for an evening exploring National Archives of Australia's migration record collection, and hear directly from ECCQ about the people, partnerships and milestones that have shaped fifty years of advocacy for multicultural communities across the state. This is more than a presentation, it's an invitation to see your own community's story reflected in the historical record, and to ask what it means for that story to be preserved, remembered and passed on.
