In 2023 ASHG’s history room in the Yeronga Community Centre was a work in progress.
In January 2024 the new history room has become a reality.
ASHG held our first Open Day on Wednesday 17 January. It was great to see long term members and new people come in to look at our displays, find out what we do and share stories about our local community.
The centre will be open on Saturday 17 January from 10.00 – 12.00 midday and Wednesday 24 January, 9.00-12.00 midday. Come and say hi. We’re in the new Community Plus+ Yeronga Community Centre in Villa Street.
Our first history talk for the year is the History of the Yeronga Community Centre on Monday 5 February at 7.00 pm. The guest speakers are Melinda McInturff and Mel Hilditch from Community Plus+ Yeronga Community Centre. The history talk will be preceded by the ASHG monthly business meeting at 6.00 pm.
