The State Library of Victoria is currently presenting a free exhibition Gusto: a culinary history of Victoria!

The exhibition explores Victoria’s historic and contemporary culinary landscape, featuring gastronomic treasures from the Library’s collections – from the first Australian cookbook, published in 1864, to an actual World War I army biscuit. To support the exhibition, the State Library of Victoria has produced a Gusto! education resource for Years 3-6 of the Australian Curriculum (VELS Levels 3 & 4).
