Way Back When is a creative, dynamic and unique team of professional historians.

We work with communities and organisations to create meaningful histories.

As professional historians, we help communities, organisations, families and individuals to explore the past.

From exhibitions and publications to websites and short films, we tell histories in dynamic ways and expertly manage projects from beginning to end.

We believe that connecting with the past gives meaning to the present, fosters a strong sense of identity and shared heritage, and provides direction for the future.

Most importantly, we love the detective-work of historical research, and collaborating with people and communities to tell their stories.

Do you have a story to tell? Contact us to chat about how we can work with you to explore your history and share it in a way that speaks to your community.

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians on whose Country we live and work. We have much to learn from their enduring connection to land, culture and history. Sovereignty has never been ceded; this always was, and always will be, Aboriginal land.
