Australia ICOMOS 50th Anniversary Working Group EOI
In anticipation of the upcoming 50th Anniversary of Australia ICOMOS in 2026 the Executive Committee seeks expressions of interest from interested members to join a working group to help plan the celebrations. We welcome applications from all members and especially seek a representative committee that reflects the rich history and future of the organisation.
It is anticipated that the majority of the commitment would occur in 2025 in terms of forward planning events for 2026 and that in 2024 expectations would largely relate to initial brainstorming and preliminary meetings.
To nominate for the working group please provide a brief (2-300 words) outline of your involvement with Australia ICOMOS and any initial ideas to contribute to the celebration year by 12th July to austicomos@deakin.com.au

ICOMOS MEMBERS
Nominations for Australia ICOMOS Honorary membership invited
Honorary Membership of Australia ICOMOS may be conferred by the Australia ICOMOS Executive Committee to honour an outstanding contribution made to, or on behalf of, Australia ICOMOS. It is intended that this will be a rare honour to be considered annually but not necessarily bestowed each year.
Existing Australia ICOMOS Honorary members (and ICOMOS Honorary members – who automatically become Honorary members of Australia ICOMOS) are listed here: https://australia.icomos.org/about-us/australia-icomos/honours-and-awards/
We now invite you to nominate one of your Australia ICOMOS colleagues for Honorary Membership, to be considered by the Executive Committee for this year. Members who have previously been nominated but not awarded with Honorary membership may be re nominated.
The nomination criteria are set out below:
- The individual must currently be a Full International Member of Australia ICOMOS, or have been a longstanding Full International Member.
- The outstanding contribution must be for a sustained period over many years.
- Honorary Membership may recognise a range of types of outstanding contributions made to Australia ICOMOS.
- These contributions must be in addition to those normally made to a voluntary organisation. Hence the performance of Executive Committee duties would be insufficient for Australia ICOMOS Honorary Membership consideration.
- The contribution may be made within Australia or internationally, but must be specifically to, or on behalf of, Australia ICOMOS.
To nominate an Australia ICOMOS member for Honorary membership, please respond to this email with the following information:
- Name of nominee
- A comprehensive statement outlining the nominee’s outstanding contribution to Australia ICOMOS. Please note that this statement may become the basis of the information that is added to the Australia ICOMOS website if Honorary Membership is conferred on the individual you nominate.
Please submit a nomination by COB 29 July 2024 to the secretariat: austicomos@deakin.edu.au
All nominations will be treated as confidential and will be made available to the Australia ICOMOS Secretariat and the small Selection Committee that will assess the nominations.

NEW Docomomo Australia Sydney Talk Series 2024- Contextualising Brutalism, July 25 2024
Contextualising Brutalism: NSW public architecture between 1958-1988 and its reinterpretation today at a time of growing conservatism.
By the early 1960s, the use of unpainted concrete in many NSW public buildings represented an aesthetic shift. Inspired by the discourse called the New Brutalism, these buildings were primarily designed by the NSW Government Architect.
Architect and researcher Glenn Harper will examine the architects who reshaped NSW public buildings between 1958 and 1988. Following this architecture writer Heidi Dokulil will discuss the fascinating stories and details uncovered for her recent book Sydney Brutalism, from the public’s mood for brutalism, the architects behind some of Sydney’s favourite examples – both public and private, and why there is a growing outcry for modernist architecture to be saved.
Time & Date: Tuesday 25th July 2024, 5.30pm for 6pm start
Cost: Students $10, Members $15, Non-Members $20, all payable through Eventbrite
Book here
Venue: NBRS Architecture, Level 2, 4 Glen Street, Milsons Point, 2061

The Uncovered Past Institute | Harrietville Vic | Chinese Mining Village Archaeological excavation – Chinese Mining Village Nov – Dec 2024
Join us to discover more about the Chinese miners who once lived and worked in the 19th century Harrietville Chinese Mining Village. For around fifty years from the early 1860s Harrietville was home to many of the thousands of Victoria’s Chinese gold miners. This will be the fifth season of archaeological excavation at the Chinese Mining Village, following on from the previous four seasons in October 2017, October 2019, October 2022 and January-February 2024. The largely undisturbed site includes mine workings, water races, building foundations, and gardens: a rare survivor of the heyday of Chinese gold mining in Victoria. The foundations of at least 19 buildings were discovered during a survey undertaken during Season One fieldwork in 2017. Huge quantities of food, liquor, medicines, utensils, ceramics and even coins were imported from China for the Chinese mining communities. Many fragments of these were discovered during the earlier excavation seasons, along with fragments of European tableware ceramics and glass bottles. Season Five research objectives will be to undertake more intensive excavations on hut site WC1, in order to determine its size, footprint and how it was constructed; and also to gain a greater understanding of the lifestyle of the Chinese miners.

Kinchela Boys Home 100th Anniversary Gathering | 18-20 October 2024
2024 marks 100 years since the gates of Kinchela Boys Home (KBH) opened. At those gates, the spirits of the children who walked through the gates were left behind. To mark this 100th anniversary, the KBH Survivors, their descendants and families are honouring the spirits of those children and celebrating the past, present and future of the Kinchela Boys Home Aboriginal Corporation (KBHAC) Community.
To recognise this important anniversary, a three-day gathering will take place from October 18th – 20th 2024. We would like to invite you to join KBHAC Survivors, their descendants and families in truth telling, cultural wellbeing, and ceremony which will take place across the Kinchela Boys Home site and the Macleay Valley, including Kempsey and South West Rocks.
Support Needed
There is important collective work to be done and KBHAC survivors and descendants are inviting you to walk alongside them, not just on “Sorry Day” or for this weekend, but in meaningful and sustained ways.
This includes supporting their vision for transforming the Kinchela Boys Home Site into a national site of truth telling and healing through the creation of a living museum and healing centre. This anniversary event foregrounds the importance of connecting with each other, to empower one another and inspire each other through shared stories. This is an opportunity to join and support the KBHAC Community to witness, remember and grow. Many of the survivors of KBH have passed and the hope for the last generations of survivors is to have the former site that inflicted so much pain and suffering into a site of healing and truth telling. We are asking for your support in working to support their vision.
If you would like to provide sponsorship please email accounts@kbhac.org.au for a prospectus.

NEW QLD Government Survey | The Effects of Climate Change on Queensland Heritage Places | Closes 25 July 2024
The effects of climate change are a significant threat to historic heritage places across Queensland.
Queensland’s heritage places teach us about our history and help us understand how our state has grown and changed over time. They also contribute to our sense of wellbeing and belonging. We need to take care of these places and make sure they are protected so that Queenslanders now, and future generations, can enjoy them.
We’re developing a plan to provide a clear understanding of the climate change risks and impacts to our historic heritage places so that we can prioritise and coordinate actions to preserve them into the future. In developing this plan we are consulting with those who own, manage and/or protect, and regulate heritage-listed places. This includes a range of people and organisations from government to industry and individual heritage property owners.
