Calling Australia Home

Whether you’ve lived your entire life here, or have recently moved to Australia, one can’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of patriotism. At least that’s what we think – and the Jewish Museum of Australia happen to agree with us. 

As the museum celebrates its thirtieth birthday, it is getting set to launch the much anticipated new permanent exhibition Calling Australia Home, housed in the Zelman Cowen Gallery of Australian Jewish History. With nearly 150 objects on display, mostly drawn from the Museum’s Collection and some from the very first time, the exhibition will engage audiences with the story of Jewish life in Australia from 1788 to the present. 

Get your dose of history with Calling Australia Home. Head to the Jewish Museum of Australia from Sunday June 17.
