We had the pleasure of hosting A Night at the Museum: Pasifika Collections at the Australian Museum in late May 2026.

The Australian Museum gave us a private tour of the Museum’s Pasifika Collections, we had an insightful keynote address by The Honourable Justice Hament Dhanji of the Supreme Court of New South Wales, and interactive cultural activities facilitated by the Australian Museum.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for an evening celebrating the connection between law, culture, and Pasifika heritage. It was wonderful to see our members and we appreciate everyone who attended and contributed to making the event such a success.

A special thank you to The Honourable Justice Hament Dhanji for sharing his insights and the Australian Museum for co-hosting the event with us!
