Recording. preserving. reflecting.
You are invited to contribute your memories of the 2021 Wooroloo Bushfire to our memory project.
Your memories will be used to create a permanent cohesive story of the unfolding disaster, the immediate aftermath, and the ongoing social and environmental recovery.
The 2021 bushfire has had lasting impacts upon communities in and around The City of Swan. The Wooroloo Bushfire Memory Project, an initiative of City of Swan Libraries, is an opportunity to reflect upon these impacts.

“Winter has softened the starkness of the blackened earth. Spring has come, but there is still the stark reminder on the other side of the lake, highlighting the intensity of the fire.”
