Coming Events
April 2026
Launch of Palmerville Exhibition
European exploration and discovery of the Limestone Plains region (1820-1825) was very closely followed by appropriation and occupation of the best of the land for grazing.
George Palmer Snr became the first landowner in Ginninderra after his overseer Duncan McFarlane, with a couple of emancipists and a dozen or so convicts occupied land on 'Ginninderry Creek' in 1826.
The site was to become known as Palmerville and the story of the families who called this land 'home' will be on display at the centre's latest heritage exhibition.
A light lunch will be on offer after the launch.
