Historic Photography Project

The Beltana Progress Association, in conjunction with the Cultural Heritage and Arts Regional Tourism Program, has purchased equipment to digitally capture and display photographs from private collections. In time, the collection will be available permanently on our website and be a major input to the towns sequi centenary in 2023.

We have collated a small selection of scanned photographs which has been viewed in the hall during our most recent arts event.

People were very interested in the photographs, intently studying them to work out where they were compared to today’s landscape. A number of the audience expressed interest in providing their own photographs to be scanned into the collection which will allow it to increase in value and usefulness over time.
