Bondi Memorial Community Launch
This Saturday 4 June, 10.30 - 11.30am, Marks Park
ACON and Waverley Council invite you to the community launch of the Bondi Memorial, this Saturday 4 June from 10.30am at Marks Park.
The Bondi Memorial is dedicated to all the victims and survivors targeted during a spate of homophobic and transphobic violence from the 1970s to the 1990s in Sydney and NSW. Many of these incidents took place in Marks Park.
We hope you can join us as we officially unveil this monument of remembrance, reflection, hope, strength, healing, truth and justice.
