Pete, Phil and I visited the East Sydney Technical College to see an art exhibition. The Tech College was an historic vocational and art school that operated on the former Darlinghurst Gaol site in Sydney from 1921 until it transitioned into the National Art School in 1996. The Darlinghurst Gaol opened in 1841 and closed in 1914.
