2. [NEW ITEM] NSW Heritage Act Review – public consultation process

On Wednesday 7 April 2021, the NSW Special Minister of State, Minister for the Public Service and Employee Relations, Aboriginal Affairs, and the Arts, the Hon. Don Harwin, (who’s portfolio includes Heritage) issued a press release titled “NSW to Modernise Heritage Protections: new Discussion Paper sets stage for Heritage Act Review”.

The NSW Government is inviting community discussion on how heritage can be better managed and protected in NSW. This is part of a government initiated review of the Heritage Act 1977.

A discussion paper has been published, which should assist with this public consultation process. No time frame for this review has been provided on either the Media Release or the Discussion Paper.

While a review of the Heritage Act is welcomed, recent public statements by some members of NSW’s state parliament suggest there may be pressure to dilute its effectiveness.

The press release and discussion paper can be found at this link.

Australia ICOMOS is extremely interested in this recently announced review, and is considering how it can best contribute. In the meantime, individual members may be interested in engaging directly with the review process, and are strongly encouraged to do so. Members can register to be kept informed about this review by sending an email to the relevant NSW Gov Team.

  • Day 2 will be focused within the profession, to discuss how conservation and its application can be adapted to be more diverse and inclusive, and to present conservation approaches from across the global conservation community.

Speaker participation from students, allied professions, global professionals, community groups, and institution representatives is encouraged.  

For more information, visit the conference website.

Deadline for abstracts is 3 May 2021. A selection committee will review abstracts and notify speakers by 24 May.

Australia ICOMOS Mentoring Program – calling for Mentors! Submit an EOI by 15 April [DEADLINE EXTENDED]

It’s here again! We need Australia ICOMOS members based in New South Wales and Victoria to step up and join us as mentors for students from the University of Sydney, University of Melbourne, Latrobe University and Deakin University.

We are celebrating a milestone birthday – after a pilot phase in the ACT, Australia ICOMOS launched its student mentoring program in 2011 and supports members to share their knowledge and networks with students planning careers in heritage. The program has been enthusiastically received by both mentors and mentees.

We usually have many more students than mentors apply – this restricts the size of the program, so we rely on the generosity of ICOMOS members so that as many students as possible can be paired.

What is required?

We ask mentors to meet with their mentees at least 3 times during the program between May and October. These meetings allow discussion about issues involved in heritage practice, and the student’s study and work interests. This year, we will be providing some extra ideas to help mentoring pairs use these exchanges well. 


Also new this year – we are planning a virtual national launch in late April so that mentors and mentees from across Australia can join together. The ‘save the date’ will be announced soon. We hope to host face-to-face social state-based closing events in October/November. Mentoring pairs will also be supported to attend State-based events organised during the year by Australia ICOMOS.

There will be a brief evaluation questionnaire distributed at the end of the year that we ask all participants to complete and return. 


How do I get involved as a MENTOR? 


If you would like to be an ICOMOS MENTOR, please email an expression of interest to the Australia ICOMOS Secretariat by COB Thursday 15 April 2021.

Please provide your contact details (email and a work or mobile number) and a brief outline of your field of professional experience, interests and current practice. This will assist the Mentoring Team in matching mentors and mentees. 


Mentors must be Full ICOMOS members and can have professional experience in any sector of cultural heritage practice. We will try to ‘match’ by interest as many students and mentors as possible. 


Mentors in other States and Territories: we sometimes have mentoring opportunities in other States and Territories (for students studying by distance through one of the participating Universities). So, if you are keen, but don’t live in Victoria, NSW or WA – please send us your EOI. We will see what’s possible!

How do I get involved as a MENTEE? 


Students in participating university courses will be advised of the application process by the focal point at their university. Please contact the person at your university as a first step. 


When do we start? 


We will be matching students and mentors and hosting the launch event at the end of April. We will circulate additional information about our ‘launch event’ once we are more certain about it.

We hope that all members based in participating States will welcome this opportunity to participate in the efforts of Australia ICOMOS and its partners to support students and emerging professionals across a range of cultural heritage disciplines.

Port Arthur Talk, 13 April 2021

The Landscape Archaeology of Point Puer
presented by Caitlin D’Gluyas

Caiti is an historical archaeologist whose core interests are Australian archaeology, spatial history and the archaeology of children. She is currently a PhD candidate at the University of New England. Her research focuses on Point Puer as well as early nineteenth century juvenile criminal management in colonial Australia and internationally.

Hidden within the bushy peninsula of Point Puer is a rich archaeological landscape that reveals a remarkable range of insights into the history of the site and the lives of the convict boys who were sent there. This presentation shares new research into the archaeological landscape of Point Puer and what the findings tell us about the experiences of the occupants and the ideology and colonial practices that created one of the world’s first separate juvenile prisons in such an isolated location.

When: 13 April, 12pm

Where: 1830 Restaurant & Bar, Visitor Centre, Port Arthur Historic Site

RSVP NOTE: Attendance by booking only. For bookings phone 1800 659 101 between 10am and 4pm or email Port Arthur Reservations

Physical distancing requirements will be observed at all times.

IDMS event: ICOMOS Emerging Professionals Working Group Africa-U.S. Collaboration, 14 April

INTERNATIONAL DAY FOR MONUMENTS AND SITES (IDMS) 2021
ICOMOS Emerging Professionals Working Group (EPWG) Africa-U.S. Collaboration
Intergenerational Conversation on Society and Heritage: Perspectives from Africa and the USA

Date: Wednesday 14 April 2021
Time: Accra: 17:00-18:15 (UTC) | Lagos: 18:00-19:15 (UTC+1) | London: 18:00-19:15 (UTC+1) | DC: 13:00-14:15 (UTC-4) | Sydney: 03:00-04:15 (UTC+10)+1 day

Theme

Leveraging heritage for a better future is gaining prominence across national, continental and international discourses, as heritage is not simply a record of the past but a cultural process reflecting the social realities of today. What is the role of heritage in tackling societal challenges including equity, diversity and inclusion in and among communities? How should heritage be integrated into decision-making processes to ensure sustainable development at the local and regional levels? What is the relationship between broader societal forces and heritage?

The leaders of governments in Africa envisioned a future where the continent is free of conflict, poverty, human rights violations and disasters. The vision encapsulates the significance of heritage within the society in the seven aspirations of African Union Agenda 2063: The Africa We Want reflecting the desire for inclusion, equality and integration for everyone regardless of gender, ethnicity and age. To this end, heritage defines people’s identities and histories and helps to rebuild communities after disasters, create new shared understanding of the past, stimulate local development and create opportunities for a better future.

In the United States, recent national discussions and protests have spotlighted unresolved racial issues and inequalities that continue to divide the country. Exploring the issues, struggles and contributions of different communities in historic places are critical to charting a path toward national healing and an equitable future.

Format

The event is led by ICOMOS EPWG representatives from the USA and the Africa region (Zoe Leung and Olufemi Adentunji), to support intergenerational exchanges critical to safeguarding and promoting heritage. The program will feature a conversation among established and emerging professionals in heritage preservation from the United States and African countries, moderated by a USA participant.

AGHS Webinar – “Colin Randall – The Gardens of Garden Island”, 14 April, 7pm AEST

The talk covers three topics:- the ship’s garden; the naval garden on The Hill; and the lost gardens of Garden Island.

The ship’s garden was first planted on Garden Island just 16 days after the first fleet arrived in Sydney Cove in February 1788. These were gardens created to provide fresh food to ward off the dreaded scurvy. The origin of the gardens as well as its eventual use as the site in 1874 of the first lawn tennis ground in Australia is discussed.

The naval garden on the northern hill of Garden Island was created from 1885 with the re-establishment of the lawn tennis court from its original location.With Royal and vice-regal visits to Sydney The Hill became a place for tree plantings as well as locating items of naval interest. The use of the naval garden and its vistas for formal photographs is covered. The presence of the naval and dockyard families and their use of The Hill as their playground and backyard influenced the design of the garden.

With the construction of the Captain Cook Graving Dock from 1941 until 1945 dramatic changes were made to the shoreline of Potts Point. The war time imperatives forced the compulsory resumption of land and the necessity to erect a concrete batching plant, destroyed in part two remarkable gardens. The gardens that were affected were those of Clarens and Wyldefel. The talk covers the two “lost” gardens with images of their original state and current situation.

Date: Wednesday 14 April 2021

Time: 7pm sharp, call begins at 6:45pm

Cost: AGHS members $10; Non-members $15; Students $5

(re)create: art and the activation of heritage, one-day symposium, 21 April, Canberra

(re)create: art and the activation of heritage
One-day symposium, Wednesday 21 April 2021, 8:45am–5pm
Ann Harding Conference Centre, University of Canberra

(re)create is a one-day symposium exploring the role of creative art practice in the activation of heritage places, practices and projects.

(re)create brings together artists, curators, heritage professionals and other researchers to explore the new perspectives that art can bring to heritage interpretation, engagement, community participation and collective problem-solving.

Speakers will discuss their involvement in reanimating archives, reimagining histories, place and ecologies, and drawing inspiration from collections and things. Whether it be the activation of dormant seed banks, endangered mammals on the edge of suburbia, or the values of mid-century modern buildings, art has a role to play in how we frame our future heritage.

20th Century Heritage Society NSW Walk and Talk Program – “A Street of Strange Delight”, 24 April, 2pm AEST

In September 1935, in a double-page feature, The Home magazine described Hastings Road, Warrawee, as ‘A Street of Strange Delight’.

The editor of that long-departed journal observed how the inhabitants had ‘…striven harmoniously to preserve the rustic flavour that characterises the district’ and had succeeded in ‘making a simple street one of the most notable in NSW’.

The Home enthused about ‘Rivenhall’ – with its exotic Japanese tea house – and ‘many other residences of pleasing design’.

Today, Hastings Road is still known for grand residences such as ‘Wirepe’ (pictured above), and ‘Pibrac’, designed by Canadian architect John Horbury Hunt.

We hope you’ll join us in this exciting first step in the revival of our Walks & Talks program. Our guide will be architectural historian Dr Zeny Edwards OAM. We’ll be entirely outdoors, with social distancing guidelines being observed.

Date: 24 April 2021

Time: 2pm to 4pm

Cost: $35
