This first-of-its-kind exhibition delves into the experiences of children during war, shedding light on their unique perspectives and the profound impact war has had on their upbringing.
While war may have been an indirect experience for many Victorian children, we also recognise those whose lives were directly affected. Some children faced separation from loved ones, endured hardships and sacrifices, or bore witness to the uncertainty and anxiety that war brings. Their stories are integral to understanding the lasting impact war can have on the formative years of childhood.
Join us for an immersive and thought-provoking journey as we explore the intertwined stories of war, childhood, and the enduring spirit of youth in the face of adversity. Discover the remarkable resilience, patriotism, and imagination of children throughout history, and gain a deeper understanding of the profound impact war has had on Australian culture.
Open daily. Free entry.
