Contextual information

The Myola Club (1921-2004) began as Mrs Flower's Literary Circle through an arrangement that Ellen Jewell 'Nellie' Flowers nee Rice (1858-1942) made with Lionel Logue, to coach a group of women in the art of speech making and chairing a meeting.

Myola means 'place for knowledge' or 'meet and learn'.

The club built premises at 6 Stirling Road, Claremont which were opened by Nellie Flower on 30 April 1935.

Declining numbers, an aging membership and the high cost of maintaining the building forced the Club to close in December 2004.
