Are you a relative, or did you know a crew member of HMAS Sydney II? Visit Birdwood House or the WA Museum Geraldton with your family and friends and work with artist Marina Baker to leave something of your story here in Geraldton. Using copies of your letters, photos, newspaper clippings or anything else you may have with you, Marina will guide you to create a shared memory that when joined with others will leave in Geraldton a poignant story from the people who recall the men of Sydney II as husband, father, brother, uncle, cousin or friend.

A free event.
