We welcome donation offers from members of the public who have items related to Bonegilla Migrant Reception and Training Centre for possible inclusion in the Bonegilla Collection.
Wodonga Council and Bonegilla Migrant Experience work in partnership with AlburyCity and Albury LibraryMuseum to document and preserve the history of Bonegilla Migrant Reception and Training Centre.
While Bonegilla Migrant Experience presents Block 19 as a site open to the public for historical reflection and education, Albury LibraryMuseum manages the Bonegilla Collection and coordinates related archival material. This collection includes objects, photographs, documents and other significant items related to the history of the site.
Donation offers
To offer an object for inclusion in the Bonegilla Collection, or for more information about object donations, please contact Albury LibraryMuseum.
Items must have a clear connection to Bonegilla Migrant Reception and Training Centre. All offers are assessed on a case-by-case basis before being accepted into the Bonegilla Collection. There is no guarantee of acceptance.
Donations for learning and education
Less significant items such as clothing, suitcases and other everyday objects may be offered directly to Bonegilla Migrant Experience. These items are used for displays, props, education programs and hands-on learning activities.
If you would like to offer an item for this purpose, please complete the online expression of interest form below. A friendly team member from Bonegilla Migrant Experience will contact you regarding your donation offer. Please note there is no guarantee of acceptance.
