Celebrate 100 years of Art Deco with Claudia Chan Shaw in Australia’s finest Art Deco masterpiece, the Anzac Memorial.

One of the most influential design movements of the 20th century, Art Deco quickly became a global phenomenon, defined by streamlined forms, geometric elegance, and the spirit of the Machine Age. It spanned architecture, art, fashion, and industrial design, from opulent craftsmanship to sleek, mass-produced objects.

To mark the centenary of this iconic style, join Claudia Chan Shaw for a captivating talk exploring the many facets of Art Deco – its architectural splendour, decorative arts, fashion, and lasting legacy. 

Following the presentation, guests are invited to enjoy an exclusive Twilight Tour of the Memorial, offering a rare opportunity to experience this architectural gem in a new light.

This experience will be held on Friday, 24 October 2025 from 6pm to 8:30pm. Tickets are $35 per person and include drinks and nibbles on arrival.

Places are limited – bookings essential.
