Staff and a number of associates have assisted in the office and Visitor Centre, notably Libby McKinnon, Kerrie Poliness, Helen Laffin, Gary Vines, Pol McMahon.

 

Acknowledgments

We especially thank Arts Victoria for their core funding during 1999, since this funding is the base of our extensive program, and Parks Victoria, for their continuing partnership with us in Pipemakers Park. We acknowledge the funding for administrative support given by the City of Maribyrnong and Environment and Heritage Australia during the year and all those who have funded particular projects undertaken by Melbourne's Living Museum of the West. We thank the Committee of Managment, especially our president, Peter Somerville, and Museum members, for ongoing support. The support given by members of the local communities within Melbourne's western region has been, as always, a source of strength and inspiration.
