Last Sunday of the Month – April 28 – Free Entry

Snippets… from a Baby Boomers Diary

Speaker: Dr James Lergessner, Author & Historian

April 28 - 11:00 to 12.30

Between 1946 and 1964, practically four million baby boomers were born in Australia. Brisbane’s baby boomers experienced the conservative decades of the 1950s; the action-packed swinging 1960s; political upheaval in the 1970s and the ‘greed is good’ agendas of the 1980s.

Dr. James Lergessner is one of Queensland’s distinguished historians, biographers and memoir writers.  In this presentation, entitled Snippets … from a Baby Boomer’s Diary, he will recall his deep connection with Brisbane and his fondness for the city’s people and communities. Dr Lergessner will also speak about his personal experiences of the major events of Brisbane’s history.

The 90 minute presentation will begin at 11.00am on Sunday, April 28 and will provide educational content suitable for all audiences.

The Museum opens its doors to the public on the last Sunday of each month from 10am to 3pm from February to November in addition to the standard Monday to Friday 9am to 4pm opening hours. Monthly Sunday openings feature guest speakers from across the historical and crime-solving spectrums.
