Hide Profile

The Pakies Club was founded by Mrs Augusta ('Pakie') MacDougall, wife of theatre director Duncan MacDougall, in 1929 as a meeting place and tearoom for bohemians, artists and intellectuals. Aided initially by Mrs Gladys MacDermott and decorated by Roy de Mestre, the Club operated from rooms on the second floor of 219 Elizabeth Street, Sydney until 1966. A journal entitled "Urge" was produced by Club members between 1933 and 1935.
