Lose yourself in history

Excitement is building as we draw closer to the announcement on Tuesday 23 October of the winners and commendations for the 2012 Victorian Community History Awards. 

This year has seen the highest number of entries since the Awards were inaugurated in 1998.  For the first time, to celebrate History Week at the Royal Historical Society of Victoria, the entries in the Victorian Community History Awards will be available for visitors to peruse at leisure during History Week at RHSV headquarters.  

Come and see the fantastic work being done by historical societies right round the state of Victoria.  Some of the books are already for sale in the RHSV bookshop, so if you like what you see, you may be able to buy a copy on the spot and take it home with you.  Examples of the books we have for sale are included in this post.

Tea and coffee will be available.

At 239 A’Beckett St, Melbourne,
10 am till 4 pm,  
Friday 19 October till Friday 26 October.
