Faces from the front: World War I and the Goldfields of Western Australia

To mark the Centenary of World War I the Western Australian Museum has developed an exhibition based on their significant Dwyer-McKay photographic collection. JJ Dwyer and T McKay took portraits of soldiers on enlistment and when they returned home at the end of the war, as well as photographing major events held in Kalgoorlie during the war years.

This significant photographic exhibition will run for six months and features numerous striking and moving photos from the period.

Free entry.
