A talk by writer Vasilis Vasilas
With the Inner West Council’s naming part of the Marrickville Road shopping precinct “Little Greece”, this presentation examines the phases of the Greek experience in Marrickville from early Greek settlement in the pre- and post-World War II periods (1930-1959), through to the Greek Golden Era (1960-1985) and, more recently, a community in gradual demographic decline. It will highlight the significant contribution and impact of Marrickville’s Greek community to multicultural Australia, justifying the designation as “Little Greece”, and will discuss the future of the Greek presence in Marrickville.
