Welcome to the first this year Literary Salon. It will be a meeting with the author Danuta Duszynska (artistic nickname: “The Australian”) entitled: ‘The Poetry and My World’.

Saturday 11 May, start at 5 PM, Restaurant opens at 5:00 PM.

About Danuta:
The family was and is for her the most important thing. She cares deeply about her family and helps as much as possible and rejoices in their achievements. Since 1991 she lives in Perth, Western Australia, she lives pretty close to her daughters, Kasia and Agnieszka and grandchildren Patrick 19-year-old and 11-year-old Sebastian.
Her passion is writing, in a very broad sense. Playing with the words of a beautiful Polish language, this for an emigrant women of 28 years is like a balm for the soul. She writes poems, stories, memoirs, creates family albums, as well as travel to many interesting parts of the world, discovering the beauty of sites. Her works have found a place in the individual and collective publications, as well as on the pages of newspapers, portals, poetic recitations and videos on YouTube. She is an optimist; she loves the surrounding world and the people. “I’m the autumn, she says, autumn that may still be gold, purple and beautiful, though inevitably loses leaves …”
“.. … Today we had the first rehearsal of my poetry evening. I should keep it a secret, as a surprise, but I couldn’t stop myself writing this few words. I was able to attract a wonderful compilation of actors to recite lines, musicians, piano and violin, maybe even singers. We still have a lot of work to do, but already it looks good. Musicians are tuning up, they’ll give musical background for recitations, and also we will have some guest appearances (own compositions played by a young, talented pianist). We will have on stage up to seven artists (Ladies and gents).
Once again I invite you to this evening of poetry and music; it would be a spiritual feast for … free! 11th of May 2019 at 5 PM at Sikorski Club! There will be also some surprises! … ”
Danuta Duszynska

Polish Club General W. Sikorski WA Inc. in association with Pilecki Project Committee and Polish Political Prisoners Association invite everyone to the Exhibition „Time For Heroes”.
This incredible exhibition was presented in Perth in the Western Australian Parliament House for one week in November 2018. The exhibition created great interest and some turbulence among Australian public and Polish diaspora in particular. Not only it showed parts of history unknown to many, but it presented the real facts either overlooked or intentionally hidden by the powers of the day.
The Exhibition is rich in facts, it contains over 60 exhibits and presents not widely known facts from WWII including:
• Warsaw Uprising 1944, heroism, fight, pride and sacrifices.
• Story of a great hero, Captain Witold Pilecki – Polish spy who volunteered imprisonment in Auschwitz – German Concentration Camp to gather evidence and escape to reveal to the world the truth about German Nazis Concentration Camps.
• Horrors of the Holocaust.
• Poles saving Jews – Żegota Polish Council to Aid Jews, it helped some 60,000 Jews.
The Exhibition was prepared by the Pilecki Project Committee and brought to Perth by the Polish Political Prisoners Association. It created great interest among Parliamentarians and the public at large. Unfortunately only one week on display at Parliament House did not allow many people to see it. Therefore Sikorski Club offered to extend viewing time for additional 3 weeks at its premises.
Please come to Sikorski Club between   17.02.2019 – 7.03.2019 . Opening times:
Monday – Friday, 10 AM – 2 PM (groups only, by appointment)
Open to public: Fridays 5:00 PM – 9 PM,
Saturdays and Sundays 12:30 PM – 5 PM
Official Exhibition opening – Sunday 17.02.2019 at 3 PM
There is free entry to the exhibition. All signage texts and descriptions are in English.

On the opening day Bar and Restaurant will be open from 12:30 PM
