Show 'n' Tell - Stories from the Suitcase

Join Us for a Fascinating Floor Talk at the Redlands Coast Museum!

Come along—whether solo or with a group—for a special floor talk that explores a different part of the Museum with each visit.

This Show 'n' Tell Focus: Stories from the Suitcase - Immigration to the Redlands
Join the Redlands Coast Museum celebrate the National Trust’s Australian Heritage Festival with a Show ‘n’ Tell on Immigration and the changes each culture brought to Quandamooka Country.

Our Immigration Display shows some of these shared stories. With tales telling us why, how and when these families came to call the Redlands home we shall get insight into our neighbours’ the traditions, treasures and challenges from changing their address. Hear what possessions came with them. See how new and old blended to create unique customs. 

Join Jan Nary on the couch with special guests as they share powerful, personal stories of their journeys to the Redlands.

Hear firsthand how they arrived, what they brought with them, and how their cultures have helped shape our vibrant community. It’s an afternoon of connection, reflection and real stories from real people.

Every-one has a story.  When you book, there is an option to tell your Redland story. How does your family celebrate and what do they bring to the cultural mix. Redland Coast Museum would love to have more real stories from real people.
