Engage With The Experts: The Tulkiyan Collection |
|
|
The Historic Houses Association of Australia manages Tulkiyan, one of the few remaining intact Arts and Crafts Houses on the North Shore of Sydney. A major aspect of the HHA’s project at Tulkiyan is the conservation of the interiors of the house and its collections. To give insight into this work and into the extent and richness of the collections, we are holding a special interactive panel discussion with three of the specialists involved in the project. |

|
This expert panel will be held over Zoom Wednesday 21 October 2020 7pm - 8.30pm Tickets Members $35 Non-Members $55 |

Curator Robert Griffin will provide background on the house and its collections and introduce furniture conservator Ian Thomson and ceramics expert Alan Landis, who will speak about their work at Tulkiyan and discuss some of highlights of the collection. Time is allocated for Q&A with the three experts on this fascinating collection and house history. |
