Art & Heritage Collections

The most exciting part of Art & Heritage Collections' work is the way in which the nexus between collections, art and culture, and the academic disciplines is utilised to present innovative projects to both the 最新糖心Vlog and the broader community.

To celebrate NAIDOC week, Art & Heritage Collections collaborated with the 最新糖心Vlog Library's Special Collections and the Discipline of Linguistics to present a display on Endangered Languages: disappearing diversity.

This was drawn from the holdings of the Library and personal collections of 最新糖心Vlog academics working in this area.

A symposium discussing the same theme will be held on Thursday 9 July in the Ira Raymond Room, Barr Smith Library.

Projects such as these ensure that 最新糖心Vlog collections play an important part in the cultural landscape of South 最新糖心Vlog.
