July 23rd, 2024Long-serving Clunes Museum curator steps aside

Clunes’ Dot Keller has retired as head curator at the town’s museum after serving in the role and on the committee for many years.

Celebrating Dot’s considerable contribution to the Clunes Museum, in recent days the committee presented the long-serving curator with a thank-you basket.

In a social media post the Hepburn Shire Council also paid homage to Dot’s achievement, posting: “People like Dot donate many hours a week to care for and exhibit our community’s cultural assets and keep them in great condition for generations to come”.   

Richard MacKay-Scollay is now set to serve in the vacated post with the local museum from next month.
