The Chinese have contributed to many aspects of the current cultural landscape in Queensland. Chinese settlers have worked on the goldfields, pioneered agricultural industries such as sugar cane, established businesses in many regional and major centres, worked market gardens growing fresh produce for Queensland communities, and positively influenced the development of Queensland cultural traditions. The exhibition includes court records, land records, naturalisation documents, photographs and other documents providing insight into the lives and times of Chinese residents in Queensland.
