Curated by acclaimed historian Dr Judith Buckrich, this exhibition offers the first in-depth illustrated history of the Yarra Birrarung, covering over 200 years, from pre-European settlement to today. Featured are the creatives whose lives and works were inspired by this iconic river – from the Heidelberg School to Melbourne’s sporting landmarks.
Don't miss this opportunity to delve into Melbourne’s cultural and environmental history and celebrate the Yarra.
