This eclectic collections of photographs from various sources all have the common theme in that they relate the Jewish experience in Australia.

The online collections include photos from JCA, the Archive of Australian Judaica and the archives of AJHS.

Today, the largest collection is from the pre-digital photo archives of the Australian Jewish News. Here some 15,000 photos dating from the 1960’s through to the early 2000’s have been harvested from brown manilla envelopes and scanned. We have used facial recognition to add names to many of these photographs. We welcome suggestions which may give more background to these photos.
