- **Event Description**: They served. They sacrificed. Their identities and stories should not be lost.  

In the lead up to Remembrance Day, we invite you to join us at Anzac Square on Sunday 8 November for a free and informative talk exploring the important work of the Australian Remembrance Army (ARA). Special guest speakers Cate Walker and Katrina Trevethan, the founders of ARA, will speak about their voluntary work and efforts to mark the unmarked graves of Australian Defence Force veterans.   

Cate and Katrina will share the story behind the Australian Remembrance Army, explain why so many veterans are buried without official markers, and discuss the research and practical work involved in identifying and commemorating them. Their voluntary work has involved extensive cemetery research, mainly at Lutwyche Cemetery, where approximately 900 previously unmarked First World War veterans' graves have been marked with a commemorative plaque between 2021 and 2026.  At Toowong Cemetery, initial work is underway to mark another 120 unmarked First World War veterans' graves. 

At its heart, this is a talk about remembrance, community service, and making sure the identities and stories of those who served are not lost.  

After the talk, visitors can stay to explore the Memorial Galleries - embarking on an interactive journey from the First World War to today, before taking time to reflect on the remarkable stories of bravery and sacrifice in the tranquil parklands.  

Anzac Square Memorial Galleries is located at 285 Ann Street, Brisbane. Entry is through the double brass doors located beneath the Shrine of Remembrance.
