SUMMARY:Twilight Talks 2025\, Season 5\, Recent Years | Ballarat Arts Foundation: 25 Years Old\, Presented by Paula Nicholson
DESCRIPTION:The BMI has recently worked with Grimwade Conservation Services to perform urgently required conservation work on a number of significant items from the Heritage Victoria registered collection. This work was carried out as part of a  Victorian Government Living Heritage Grant awarded in 2021\, with work completed in December 2022. These items include original volumes of Australian plant specimen books compiled by Baron Ferdinand von Mueller\, and associated books written by von Mueller\, an original artwork known to have belonged to the BMI from the early days of the Institute and various other valuable books needing cleaning and restoration work. The primary exhibition will showcase these remarkable items within the Heritage listed building that is the Ballaarat Mechanics’ Institute. The proposed accompanying events will include creative programming to showcase this work\, the wider BMI collection and the historic building and introduce or re-introduce the wider public to “their” Institute. Invitations will be extended to other special interest organisations to bring their members to learn why Ballarat was considered an important centre for learning and knowledge sharing\, even in the 19th century. 								\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n						\n					\n			\n						\n									Cost/Entry Fee: Free to BMI members | $5 for non-members 								\n					\n		\n				\n			\n						\n										\n						\n									Book here\n					\n					\n								\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n							\n			\n		\n						\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n									View the full list of Ballarat Heritage Festival Events at the BMI 								\n					\n		\n				\n			\n						\n										\n						\n									Ballarat Heritage Festival | BMI\n					\n					\n								\n					\n		\n					\n		\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n							\n			\n		\n						\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n																\n															\n															\n					\n		\n				\n			\n							\n		\n				\n			\n						\n																\n															\n															\n					\n		\n				\n			\n							\n		\n				\n			\n						\n																\n															\n															\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n						\n					\n			\n							\n		\n				\n			\n						\n																\n															\n															\n					\n		\n				\n			\n							\n		\n				\n			\n						\n																\n															\n															\n					\n		\n				\n			\n							\n		\n					\n		\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n							\n			\n		\n						\n				\n					\n            \n        \n            \n                \n            \n        From the Curator | Arresting the Ephemeral\n                        The Ballaarat Mechanics’ Institute is custodian of the most intact... \n                    \n        \n    \n        \n            \n                \n            \n        Rosemary’s Book of the Week | The Palace of Lost Virture by Anthea Hodgson\n                        The Palace of Lost Virtue Anthea Hodgson Don’t miss Anthea... \n                    \n        \n    \n        \n            \n                \n            \n        Rosemary’s Book of the Week – A Murder in Springtime by Martin Walker\n                        A Murder in Springtime Martin Walker Bruno\, chief of police... \n                    \n        \n    \n        \n            \n                \n            \n        Newsletter – June 2026\n                        Rosemary's New Releases and Recommendations | Author Talks - Live... \n                    \n        \n    \n            \n                    \n                \n                    \n                    Load More
