In early 2022 members of the Stockton Historical Society Inc submitted a grant application to the Culture, Heritage and Arts Regional Tourism (CHART) Program. The submission included items to conserve and protect original material in the custodianship of the society, cleaning materials and items such as banners to promote the history of Stockton. Below is an image of two of the banners produced using the money from the grant. The first is a general banner about the Society and what we do. The second banner highlights some of the Industrial history of Stockton, including shipbuilding, saw mills, the Tweed Factory and the many other industries that were undertaken on Stockton over the years.
We will be developing a number of other banners on different themes such as schools, sport, community groups and other topics of interest. These will then be produced as funds become available. These will then be available as a pop up exhibition for any groups that wish to utilise them.
