Auckland Heritage Festival - Photo Exhibition - Onehunga's Changing Foreshore
Hi everyone, as part of this year's Auckland Heritage Festival, Aotea Sea Scouts are hosting an exhibition of photographs titled "Onehunga's Changing Foreshore", this exhibition features over 150 photographs showing the changes to Onehunga's coastline over the past 170 years.
The exhibition runs from 8th to 16th October from the hall of Aotea Sea Scouts, between 10:00AM and 4:00PM daily.
This is not only an opportunity to see these wonderful photographs and learn about the history of Onehunga's foreshores from Te Papapa round to Hillsborough, but also an opportunity to see inside our historic building, normally only accessible to families of Sea Scouts.
Entry is free, but any donations to the Scouts are warmly appreciated.
Parking is outside the building, or opposite in Gloucester Park or along the motorway reserve, but please be very careful crossing the road. You can also park along Orpheus Drive and walk back to the Sea Scouts, or across in the Onehunga Lagoon carpark and cross via the footbridge then walk along Orpheus Drive.
A book titled "Onehunga's Changing Foreshore", including many of the photographs being exhibited, and covering the history in detail, will be available for purchase at the exhibition. The book is by Sea Scout leader and author Stephen Lasham and costs $45 cash (we cannot do EFTPOS at the hall).
