Caring for your collections: military medals and mementos
Join us at Anzac Square Memorial Galleries for a free talk on the care and preservation of military-related collections.
We invite you to join Melanie Sorenson, Specialist Conservator at the State Library of Queensland, for an informative afternoon focused on the care and preservation of military-related items in your collection. Whether you have medals, wartime mementos, or other historical objects, this session will provide valuable insights into the best practices for their protection and longevity.
Melanie will share expert tips on how to properly store and care for these important items, helping you appreciate their cultural and historical significance while ensuring they remain in good condition for years to come. This session is an excellent opportunity to learn practical techniques for preserving your collection and to connect with others who share an interest in history and conservation.
After the talk, visitors can stay to explore the Memorial Galleries, embarking on an interactive journey from the First World War to today, before taking time to reflect on the remarkable stories of bravery and sacrifice in the tranquil parklands.
Anzac Square Memorial Galleries is located at 285 Ann Street, Brisbane. Entry is through the double brass doors located beneath the Shrine of Remembrance.
