South Australia Dry

South Australia Dry was a project undertaken in 2001 as part of celebrations for the Centenary of Federation. The South Australia Dry project produced six exhibitions exploring the theme of how people in South Australian dry land areas have managed scarce water resources, and the impact that the lack of water has had on the development of communities and farming practices in the State since Federation. The project was coordinated by the History Trust and funded by the Centenary of Federation, the History Trust’s Museums Accreditation and Grants Program, and the participating museums.
