SUMMARY:Light it Red for Dyslexia 2025
DESCRIPTION:Ask any dyslexic about their school experience and they will tell you about the gut wrenching fear of receiving back their school work covered in red crosses and comments. When Light it Red started in 2015\, it was about taking back the power of that colour to raise awareness. The colour influenced our name Code Read (pronounced RED) Dyslexia Network. Red is disruptive and cannot be ignored but it also highlights the urgency of the situation. In effect we wanted to say that it is time to stop sweeping this important issue under the carpet and take action. \nCode REaD Dyslexia Network’s annual  ‘Light it Red for Dyslexia’ campaign\, designed to Raise Dyslexia Awareness by lighting significant monuments\, buildings and landmarks RED during Dyslexia Awareness Month each October. \nOld Treasury Building will be lit in red for this event from sunrise to sunset.

SUMMARY:Consuming Fashion: Fibres and Fun in the 1960s
DESCRIPTION:The next installment in the seminar series from Deakin University\, Australian Catholic University and Old Treasury! ‘Material Histories’ presents new scholarship from a wide range of speakers\, all united by their passion for objects! \nThe 1960s is a period defined by change. An era of unprecedented growth in youth culture and synthetic fibres saw the birth of two fashion icons: Barbie and Woolmark. During this online talk event\, we’ll delve into the history and impact of these two fashion giants. \nFirst Speaker\nPlaying with Barbie: Youth fashion and child’s play in the 1960s\nwith Dr Pauling Hastings\nMattel’s Barbie doll launched in Australia in 1964\, a time of unprecedented growth in the youth fashion market. Dubbed “The Teenage Fashion Model Doll\,” Barbie modelled teenage lived experience and aspirations to children\, challenging traditional images of postwar femininity and motherhood. For Barbie\, fashion enabled possibility. Through her expanding fashionable wardrobe\, Barbie reinforced new ideas on sartorial style\, fun and alternative women’s roles.\nDr Pauline Hastings is a Professional Historian and independent scholar. Her work on Australia’s postwar manufacturing\, marketing and consumption of fashion and textiles connects the material to broader histories of society\, culture and the economy. \nSecond Speaker\nFashioning Australian wool: the Wool Fashion Awards and Woolmark in Australia’s 1960s\nwith Dr Lorinda Cramer\nAustralian wool stood a fashion crossroads in the 1960s. On the one hand\, exciting new synthetic fibres linked with modernity and youth culture had electrified the clothing market. On the other\, initiatives directly focused on regaining wool’s footing strengthened. This included the Wool Fashion Awards that had launched the previous decade and the introduction of the Woolmark symbol in Australia in 1966. Both extended wool’s appeal for Australian consumers by creating a glamorous\, fashionable and high-quality image for the natural fibre.\nDr Lorinda Cramer is a lecturer in Cultural Heritage and Museum Studies at Deakin University. Her work explores the worn and material histories of Australian wool\, the gendered dimensions of dress and textiles\, and historical examples of sustainable fashion and waste in museum collections. \nMaterial Histories is presented by Old Treasury Building in partnership with Deakin University and Australian Catholic University. \n‘Consuming Fashion: Fibres and Fun in the 1960s’ is presented as part of Melbourne Fashion Week.

SUMMARY:Dysautonomia Awareness Month
DESCRIPTION:October 2025 marks Dysautonomia International’s 14th Global Dysautonomia Awareness Month campaign. \nEach year building and monument owners are asked to light up the night sky turquoise for Dysautonomia Awareness Month\nOn Friday October 24th\, the world joins to ‘Turn the Town Turquoise’. \nDysautonomia Dysautonomia (pronounced dis-oughta’-no-me-uh) is an umbrella term that includes many different diseases of the autonomic nervous system. Over 70 million people worldwide live with a form of dysautonomia. The autonomic nervous system controls all of the involuntary functions of the body\, like heart rate\, blood pressure\, digestion\, and temperature control. Some forms of dysautonomia are mild\, while others are fatal\, but all forms of dysautonomia can be very debilitating. People with dysautonomia often suffer for years undiagnosed\, due to a lack of awareness. \nOld Treasury Building will be lit in turquoise for this event from sunrise to sunset.

SUMMARY:Looking back on the Swinging Sixties
DESCRIPTION:What comes to mind when we think about the ‘Swinging Sixties’? Is it miniskirts and pop music\, street protest\, or the Pill? Do we remember rebellious youth and ‘the generation gap’\, or think nostalgically of a time of full employment\, buoyant wages\, and high rates of home ownership? In truth the sixties was about all of these things. Join Margaret Anderson as she explores life in the 1960s and asks did Victoria really ‘swing’ in the 1960s? \nMargaret Anderson is the historian director of the Old Treasury Building. \nPresented as part of the ‘Swinging Sixties’ exhibition from Old Treasury Building.

SUMMARY:Making Public Histories: Thinking about the weather heatwaves and history in twentieth century Australia
DESCRIPTION:Heatwaves are forgotten killers as deaths occur silently\, in homes and institutions. In urban and temperate areas heatwaves evaporate from our memory\, erased by the drama of fire\, flood and storm.\nEnvironmental historians recognise the importance of climate as not simply a “backdrop against which history is played out” but an active force in Australian life. Through hospital records\, diaries and press reports\, we examine daily life in the mid-twentieth century as heatwaves unfold\, finding that decisions about sleep\, food\, housing\, clothing and social interaction\, as well as professional and domestic labour\, were disrupted and negotiated.\nBy uncovering the everyday practices by which people negotiate weather\, in urban\, regional and remote areas\, we reveal how heatwaves have been crucial in shaping the Australian idea and experience of climate. \nJoin us for three expert speakers and a topical panel discussion. \nSpeakers\nMANDY PAUL- ‘Fearful heat’: the January 1939 heatwave in Tarntanya/Adelaide\nMandy is a public historian and museum professional whose current research interests include the history of heatwaves in Tarntanya/Adelaide\, and the power of museum collections. She is Head of Collections at the History Trust of South Australia and a visiting Research Fellow in the School of Humanities at the University of Adelaide. \nROCHELLE SCHOFF- Thermometer conscious: keeping an eye on the mercury in everyday life\nRochelle is a graduate researcher in environmental history in the Department of Archaeology and History\, La Trobe University. Her research focuses on drought and extreme weather and considers relationships between people and climate across regional southeastern Australia during the twentieth century. \nREBECCA JONES- Living with heat in arid Australia\nRebecca is an environmental historian with particular interest in Australian climate\, weather\, rural health and adaptation. She worked as a public historian in Victoria and at Monash University and the Australian National University. She is the author of Slow Catastrophes: Living with drought in Australia (Monash University Publishing). \nThe seminar is part of an ongoing series\, Making Public Histories\, that is offered jointly by the Monash University History Program\, the History Council of Victoria and the Old Treasury Building. Each seminar aims to explore issues and approaches in making public histories. The seminars are open\, free of charge\, to anyone interested in the creation and impact of history in contemporary society. \nWe thank the series sponsors\, Monash University Publishing\, the Monash University History Program and the Old Treasury Building.

SUMMARY:Crinoline\, Flapper & Mini: Transformative Fashion Moments
DESCRIPTION:Women’s fashion is ever evolving\, but there have been 3 major moments of significant change: the introduction of the crinoline — an innovation that maintained shape but relieved women from the heavy petticoats of years past; the ‘flapper’ dress — an escape from corsetry and tight waists of the previous century and the discovery of women’s knees of the 1920s; and the miniskirt crazy of the 1960s — thigh skimming skirts that quickly evolved from scandalous to everyday. \nJoin Margaret Anderson\, Director of the Old Treasury Building\, on a special tour of the latest exhibition Swinging Sixties\, followed by a discussion of three transformative fashion moments\, illustrated by original costume. \n‘Crinoline\, Flapper & Mini: Transformative Fashion Moments’ is presented as part of the PayPal Melbourne Fashion Festival’s Independent Programme. \nPresented as part of the ‘Swinging Sixties’ exhibition from Old Treasury Building.

SUMMARY:Material Histories: Cuttings\, Combings\, Fettlings and Flock: Fashionable Consumption and Australian Wool ‘Waste’
DESCRIPTION:We live surrounded by material things. Some are mundane and utilitarian\, others exotic objects of desire\, but all our belongings have something to say about who we are and how we live. Objects reflect both culture and history. Individually and collectively\, they shape our lives\, link us to others and connect us to the past. Yet objects are often strangely absent from accounts of past lives. This seminar series aims to unpack some of the stories that objects can tell about the present and about the past.  We also hope to provide a forum for discussion for those of us interested in material histories. We aim to cast the net widely\, with no limitations on either time or space. \n  \nAustralia’s wool industry produced vast amounts of fine fleece from the nineteenth century\, spurring clothing industries globally and driving fashionable consumption. Yet wool processing and clothes manufacturing also generated waste – products like cuttings\, combings\, fettlings and flock. Salvaged then sold to waste merchants\, these materials had a second life. This paper explores fashion and its resulting waste by drawing together the mail order catalogues produced by the Melbourne department store Foy & Gibson and the invoices it issued for the wool waste leaving its mills and clothing factories. It considers the value of these waste products in their second life. \nSpeaker: Dr Lorinda Cramer is a lecturer in Cultural Heritage and Museum Studies at Deakin University. Her work explores the worn and material histories of Australian wool\, the gendered dimensions of dress and textiles\, and historical examples of sustainable fashion and waste in museum collections. \nMaterial Histories is presented by Old Treasury Building in partnership with Deakin University and Australian Catholic University. \n  \n‘Cuttings\, Combings\, Fettlings and Flock: Fashionable Consumption and Australian Wool ‘Waste’’ is presented as part of the PayPal Melbourne Fashion Festival’s Independent Programme.

SUMMARY:World Kidney Day
DESCRIPTION:Kidney disease is projected to become the 5th leading cause of death worldwide by 2050\, rising from the 18th leading cause in 1990. Sadly\, 1.8 million Australians are completely unaware they are living with kidney disease. As they progress toward kidney failure\, many of these people will either require a transplant or kidney dialysis to stay alive.\nWhile kidney disease continues to soar\, dialysis treatment has barely changed in 50 years – and it takes away people’s quality of life\, their freedom and their time. This World Kidney Day\, we continue to call for greater investment in kidney disease and a change to the status quo.\nIt’s time to join the kidney revolution! \n#WorldKidneyDayAU #WorldKidneyDayAU #jointhekidneyrevolution \nOld Treasury Building will be lit in red for this event from sunrise to sunset.
