Our second AGM as an incorporated association was held last night at Allens Arthur Robinson on the 31st floor of the Riverside Centre. Thirty members came to listen to Lea Giles-Peters fascinating talk on the new State Library, elect the new committee, and watch the sun go down behind the mountains before sipping champagne until late.
Our new committee
Congratulations to everyone. Contact details will be available on the ALLG(Q) website soon. Please feel free to contact the committee with ideas for CPD
events and venues or feedback on other issues of concern to the ALLG.
At the AGM, Leanne's President's report and Susan's Treasurer's report
outlined the terrific activity and achievements of the outgoing
committee. Members got great value for money from the impressive list of heavily-subsidised CPD and social events, our new blog, sponsorship and other promotional opportunities.
The evening wasn't all business. I think that everyone in attendance will want to be at the public opening of the new State Library on 2
December this year. Lea kept us amused with tales of dealing with arty architects, decidedly non-arty boards, and staff flung far and wide over Brisbane. We can't wait to hear the musical piece commissioned for the new State Library, see the kuril dhagun Indigenous Knowledge Centre, and sit in the "red box" overlooking the Brisbane River.
A special thank you to our sponsors for the night - One Umbrella and CCH - and to Allens for providing such a spectacular venue for the evening.
