We heart Sydney Town Hall

Open Day Saturday 3 May, Lower Town Hall
On Saturday 3 May as part of the National Trust's Heritage Festival, the City of Sydney is inviting the public to bring along any memorabilia you have of Sydney Town Hall - photos, event programs, souvenirs or postcards. There will be a panel of experts that can asses your memorabilia and provide some context to how it fits into the town hall's history. Share your memories and tell the City why the Sydney Town Hall is important to you and your community. You can help the City decide what will be included in their new exhibition that they're planning - we Love Sydney Town Hall. There will also be free mystery tours, floor talks, drawing class and children's activities on the day. You can catch up on Lisa's segment with Mitch on 2SER breakfast here. Tune in next week![Baptist Youth Fellowship in Concert, Sydney Town Hall c1964. Album cover, personal collection. Baptist Youth Fellowship in Concert, Sydney Town Hall c1964.
