We will also curate a public transport and walking tour from Gonville to the Here Open Home sites, with stops at select cafes, shops and wine venues of Whanganui Town, and a stop at the soon to be opened Sarjent Gallery.

Please RSVP to let us know who to expect. The Centre event is free – though koha would be accepted (especially for GURC) – or you could renew your membership. The schedule will be sent out to RSVP emails before the weekend.
