Join us for a fascinating evening full of tales about the passenger ship Anna Salen, collected by project researcher Amanda Lovitt.

Close to 10,000 people travelled to Australia on the “ANNA SALEN”. Some of these passengers settled in Collie in the early 1950’s, and families still have descendants living in the town today. Come and discover more about the journey that many of these families endured on the “ANNA SALEN”. Hear about passengers’ stories and learn tips on researching your family’s own story!

Light refreshments provided. Book tickets here
