Fremantle Studies Day
Sunday 25th October 2015
Four lively presentations exploring aspects of the suburban-city centre relationship from the 19th century to the present in the heritage listed Hilton Hall, 2/34 Paget Street, Hilton.
Our program of events includes our famously delicious Afternoon Tea, served in the hall’s spacious café-style foyer.
Session One
The Legacy of Creating Something New
Two speakers explore how two of Fremantle’s modest utopian visions - the Garden Suburb of Hilton and the former 19th century beachside summer paradise of South Beach - have fared since their separate beginnings.
‘Houses of Hilton’, by Mary Ann Goodlich
‘Bright, Breezy, Bracing South Beach: the History of a Seaside Playground’ by Jillian Barteaux
Session Two
Preserving Fremantle’s History and Heritage
Two speakers present their individual perspectives on conservation projects in Fremantle.
‘The Prehistory of Conservation in Fremantle, Revisited’ by Robin McKellar Campbell
‘Exit stage right: Looking at the Deckchair Theatre collection’, by Kristy Bizzaca
