The Parramatta Heritage Centre has a new exhibition, From Canton with Courage: Australian Chinese in Parramatta and Beyond, which is on now until 11 March 2012. The exhibition is a partnership between the centre and Jack Brook, who recently produced a book on the same subject. I haven’t yet managed to get my hands on the book (although I note it’s in the National Library – maybe time for another visit!). I know of a couple of families with Parramatta connections, so I’ll be interested to see if they get a mention.

What: From Canton with Courage: Australian Chinese in Parramatta and beyond
Where: Parramatta Heritage Centre, 346A Church Street, Parramatta
When: 23 July 2011 to 11 March 2012
