"Time after time… Camden’s iconic buildings and their changing stories..."
One of the featured buildings is Macaria - a building which still looks much the same as when it was built in about 1859, though it has been extended over the years. It has been a home, school, doctor's surgery, library, and council building. It was nearly lost in 1970, but thankfully was saved. It is now the home of the Alan Baker Art Gallery.
Come and see more of the story at the free exhibition in the Old Fire Station, 40 John Street Camden, until May 18.

This exhibition is presented by Camden Historical Society, Camden Area Family History Society, and Camden Library, as part of the Australian Heritage Festival

Professor Clark was born in the front room of 62 John St, Camden, in 1935, and attended Camden Public School. Camden provided the young Graeme Clark with the freedom and opportunity to explore and think in a rural landscape.
Camden Museum has a permanent exhibition featuring the life and work of Professor Graeme Clark AC, made possible by generous donations from Professor Clark, Cochlear Limited and the NSW State Government
Camden Museum reopens April 30, come along and see the exhibition!
