About Time
South Australia’s
History Festival
Welcome to About Time: South Australia’s History Festival, one of
South Australia’s largest community events.
Beginning as SA History Week in 2004, 2014 is the beginning of our
second decade, and we’ve got a wonderful program packed full of
exciting activities to showcase our history.
A big thank you to all the event organisers who have been with us
from the beginning, and to all the people who have been converted
along the way – About Time only exists because of you and we
acknowledge the wonderful work you do preserving our state’s
collections, places and stories.
We think there is something for everyone in About Time this year,
and we hope you’ll make the most of the experiences on offer. We’d
love to hear what you think of the events in the program – you can
share your thoughts and recommendations with us on social media.
There’s not a day in May when you don’t have a wide selection of
events to attend – we hope to see you out and about!

This year’s About Time design features original black and white photographs merged
with contemporary shots. They provide dramatic snapshots of how South Australia has
changed over the years.
The original images are from the South Australian Government Photographic Collection
which documents over seven decades of government activities, state celebrations, and
the growth of industry, trade and townships between 1890 and 1957.
