Ballarat Mechanics' Institute, Sturt Street Ballarat.

FREE ENTRY

Dramatic changes to the CHHA Festival will not only give interested visitors a glimpse into the collections of our member societies, but will involve schools in research programs to foster good practice in writing the history of local schools. A new feature will be held on Monday when presentations on research undertaken will be given by local school students, with CHHA awarding certificates of participation.

Note the changes to festival days - The festival now takes place on Sunday and Monday.
