Historical information

This eulogy is dedicated to Kallista woman, Beryl Collett (1925-2018) and forms part of a large and varied range of objects relating to Beryl which is held by the Museum.

Significance

The Dandenongs have been the chosen home of many creative people who, like Beryl, have found inspiration in the natural beauty of the area. Much of Beryl's work was created by her following her retirement from her accountancy job in 1980 and so epitomises the potential of the retirement phase of people's lives.
