South Australia’s History Festival – Cast in Concrete: Italian Migrants and South Australia’s Building Industry

Italians are one of the largest migrant groups in South Australia and dominate the construction industry, yet little is known about their contribution to the success story of South Australia’s concrete industry.

Join us for a panel discussion that unpacks the relationship between Italian chain migration and the story of South Australia’s pre-cast concrete industry. The audience will be able to share their own stories and register interest in a future research project. The event is co-hosted by the School of Architecture and Built Environment, University of Adelaide and the Migration Museum.
