On the 16th May 2016 the Assoc. of Australian Decorative & Fine Arts Societies (ADFAS) Newcastle held a special information day held at the Newcastle Club to discuss a research project of School of Arts/Mechanics’ Institutes in the Newcastle and Hunter Region.
We are delighted to announce that Helen Creagh and Gwen Hamilton, representing ADFAS (Australian Decorative and Fine Arts Society), completed their report on the Wickham School of Arts building, and it is currently available at this link https://www.adfas.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Wickham-NSW-V2.pdf
This project was national in scope, and ADFAS have provided all their histories related to the other Schools of Arts / Mechanics Institutes across the country at this link: https://www.adfas.org.au/what-we-do/adfas-in-the-community/school-arts-mechanic-institute/
We congratulate them on this magnificent achievement.
