Kia ora koutou,
On Sunday the 5th of May between 11am and 2pm, Puaka-James Hight will be joining a number of other UC buildings featuring in the annual city-wide architectural event, Open Christchurch! Open Christchurch is a celebration of architecture and city planning run by Te Pūtahi, Centre for Architecture and City Making.
As part of our support of this annual event, we will have a display in PJH celebrating its design and architecture, and themed collateral for people to take. Staff will also be hosting our visitors and providing self-guided tours. This is a repeat of what we have run for Open Christchurch in the past.
The display will be up for a period of time before and after the event, so swing by and have a look! Of special interest this year, we are celebrating the 50th birthday of our beloved Puaka-James Hight building! Plus, we will also be promoting Erin’s ‘Drawing Connections’ exhibition currently being shown at Tūranga, exploring the architectural legacy of Cecil Wood.
Ngā Mihi,
Isabella, Erin, Roman, Zina, Ryan, Hui, and Sarah
