Historic Houses Trust new exhibitions

Exhibitions and events - Historic Houses Trust
  • Persons of interest: There are secret ASIO files on an estimated 500,000 Australians. Are you a person of interest?
  • 52 Suburbs: Photography that celebrates vibrancy, multiculturalism and community in Sydney’s suburbs.
  • Redcoats & convicts: Join us for a day of family fun and adventure as living history enthusiasts re-enact convict life at the Hyde Park Barracks. Meet convict blacksmiths, stonemasons, dressmakers and cooks. Watch woodworkers as they piece together the guardhouse domes. You may even see Governor Macquarie inspecting the barracks – make sure you stand clear of the redcoats (and cover your ears!) as they fire their muskets.
