Hurstville City’s popular Chinese New Year Festival began in 2002. The first festival developed by Hurstville City Council increased awareness of the growing Chinese community and

provided an opportunity for people to discover and appreciate elements of Chinese culture. This initial festival

was held in the Palm Court Carpark on Forest Road and was attended by a few thousand people. The

following year over 30,000 people attended the festival.

Today, more than 40,000 people visit Hurstville each year to participate in the celebrations for Chinese New Year, making this event the largest of its kind outside the Sydney CBD. Hurstville’s Chinese New Year Festival celebrates the social, cultural and economic contributions made by the Chinese community who total approximately 20 per cent of the local population.

Visit the Museum & Gallery’s 2010 Chinese New Year exhibition and take a trip back in time to experience how this celebration has grown in the space of eight years. View photographs of past celebration highlights such as the lion eye dotting ceremony, martial arts display, lion dancing and best dressed stall competitions. You can even record your own good luck message on the Museum & Gallery’s Chinese New Year celebration board

广受欢迎的好市围农历新年庆祝活动，是在2002年开始举办。当年好

市围市政府首办这项活动，唤起了人们对正在崛兴的华人社区的注意，

并为大家提供了一个发现和欣赏到典型中华文化的机会。这项活动起初

是在Forest Road 的 Palm Court 停车场举行，吸引了数千游人，但到翌

年，游客已增加到三万人。

今天，每年都有超过四万人参加这项农历新年庆典，这是悉尼市区以外

同类型的最大型庆祝活动。好市围的农历新年庆祝活动，欢庆着华人社

区对社会、文化和经济上的贡献。目前华人共占区内人口的两成。

参观博物展览馆内的 2010 农历新年展览，将让你看到这项庆祝活动在

过去 8 年如何成长。你会看到以往庆典的精彩图片，包括醒狮点睛、

功夫表演、祥狮献瑞和最佳摊位服装比赛等；你还可以在博物展览馆的

庆祝农历新年看板上写下你的幸运留言。

World War II was a period of dramatic change for the people of NSW. As the cry ‘There’s A War On’ rang out men, women and children came together to face an uncertain future. For some the war brought new opportunities, adventure, love, lasting friendships and exciting experiences. For others wartime meant loss and hardship, fear and uncertainty, or a term in a POW/internment camp as they were suddenly regarded not as friends or neighbours but as ‘enemy aliens’.

There’s A War On! World War II at Home is a Museums and Galleries NSW traveling exhibition. The exhibition showcases the varied experiences of the men, women and children who fought the war on the home front and includes precious World War II artifacts, memorabilia, photographs and video footage from around NSW.

Hurstville City Museum & Gallery will be creating its own special display focusing on how the St George community came together to support the war effort. This component will feature local stories and images which combined with the Museums and Galleries NSW exhibition will provide an insightful look into this important part of Australian history.

If you have any items you wish to donate, provide the Museum & Gallery for a short term loan or if you have any personal stories you think would be of interest please contact the Museum & Gallery on 9330 6444.

对纽省的老百姓来说，二次大战是一次戏剧化的转变，在“战争来了”的警号下，不论男女老少，都要面对不可知的未来。对有些人来说，战争带来了新的机会、冒险、爱情、友谊和令人兴奋的经验；对另一些人来说，战争表示了损失、艰困、恐惧和未知数。套句战俘营中的术语：大家忽然发觉，朋友和邻居都变成了“敌对的外人”。

“战争来了！2 次世界大战在家中”是纽省博物馆暨展览馆的巡回展览，它展示了男女老少在本土前线抵抗战争中的不同经验，展览的内容，包括纽省战时稀有的手工艺品、收藏品、图片和录影片段。好市围市立博物馆暨展览馆将会制作自己的特别陈列，显示圣乔治地方社区如何同心戮力去支援这场战争。这个陈列组合，将包括一些本地综述和图片，与纽省博物馆的展览夹杂一起，为这个澳洲历史上的重要部分，提供一个深度的展示。如你有任何物品，想向博物馆暨展览馆捐赠或短期借出，或你有任何足以

引起大家兴趣的个人经历，请与博物馆暨展览馆联络，电话9330 6444。

HARMONY DAY 2010Hurstville City Council will be celebrating Harmony Day for 2010 by screening eight short films that promote harmony, respect and understanding of differences. The films focus on the theme ‘Courage’ for its importance in confronting fear and standing up for what is right. The aim is to provide a

greater understanding of the concept of courage within our society. What is courage? How do we apply it in our lives? How do we move towards a more peaceful and harmonious place? The theme is instrumental for promoting harmony in our local community.

Council has initiated the Hurstville Harmony Movie Festival in partnership with Department of Education and Training. The films are quite diverse in their topics from compassion, to people with a disability, to cultural diversity to human rights. All the short films are for general viewing.

The films will be followed by discussion on harmony themes and film making. To book your seat please call Jamal Bassam, Multicultural Services on 9330 6069. BOOKING IS ESSENTIAL.
