The State Library of Victoria has a free exhibition about the uprising which occurred in Dublin during Easter 1916. See their website for associated events.
You can explore Stories from 1916 which is a Living History Project from Ireland.
Local boy Charlie Wright ended up in Dublin after being wounded in France in 1916, and wrote a postcard to his mother from the hospital. He wasn't there during the uprising, but there must have been plenty of signs of it a few months afterwards.
