Hostel stories
Many Lithuanians who came to Adelaide resided in hostels while they worked their contract for the government. The University of Adelaide and the Migration Museum are seeking stories on workers and residents who lived in hostels. Throughout History month in May they will be holding session so you can share your stories and to contribute to a research project.
Here are the details for the Woodside migrant talk.
Wednesday 22 May, 6 - 7.30 pm
Woodside Library, 26 Onkaparinga Valley Rd, Woodside
