BMI Monthly Calendar 2025

Due to popular demand our calendar is back again for 2025.

The Ballaarat Mechanics’ Institute 2025 monthly wall calendar features twelve beautiful photographs from our heritage image collection.

Each month you can turn over a new leaf to a delightful Ballarat scene. 

This calendar will look beautiful in your home or office, with a binder top for neat hanging. It is A3 size so plenty of room for marking those important dates in your life. It would also make a perfect Christmas gift!

Best of all – all money raised from the calendar will support the work that we do here at the BMI, ensuring that we can continue to serve the community of Ballarat. 

See below the example of our 2024 calendar, the 2025 edition will be available to view soon.
