CATHS PRESENTATION

AT THE PMI VICTORIAN HISTORY LIBRARY

- TUESDAY 25 FEBRUARY 6.30 - 7.30 -


Members and friends are invited to attend as we explore Melbourne's cinematic production history. From the first screening of a motion picture in Australia to the production of first class feature films in the 1920s and 30s, Melbourne has been at the forefront of movies from the beginning.

This event, presented by Mike Trickett, will showcase rare historic footage that shaped our cultural landscape.

Relive the magic of early filmmaking and presentation, from the first Melbourne screening in 1896 to many later innovations.

Enjoy period-appropriate movie snacks as we celebrate Victoria's pivotal role in Australia's film history.

Tuesday 25th February 6.30 - 7.30 pm -  PMI Victorian History Library, Prahran

(300 metres from the Prahran train station)
