Changed forever: Legacies of conflict opened this week at the Shrine. In Changed forever, stories of migrants who have resettled in Australia from war-torn countries are presented beside those of recent veterans of overseas service in the Australian Defence Force. This moving exhibition explores the impacts of global and civil conflict in changing lives and shaping contemporary Australia. All have been redefined by the emotional and physical dislocation of war, and seek to reconcile this with their new lives.

Changed forever will be at the Shrine until Sunday 13 October before commencing its tour of Victoria.

Join our upcoming panel discussion supporting the exhibition on Wednesday 18 September.
