AUCKLAND H E R I TA G E F E S T I VA L — THE YANKS ARE COMING — During World War II, Auckland received the welcome invasion of American soldiers, sailors, marines and air crew to train, or recuperate from fighting the Japanese.

AUCKLAND H E R I TA G E F E S T I VA L — GOING TO THE FLICKS — Brian McDonnell’s illustrated talk will take you back to the days before television, when Auckland had more than 50 movie theatres and the weekly Saturday matinee was displayed at a local suburban bughouse.

DANIEL LARSEN-BARR — WHY WRITE? — Why Write? begins by examining a selection of poems. By breaking down the themes, structures and vocabulary in other texts, we can use those features to improve our own work in all modes of writing. We produce short pieces which we share with the group. Each participant receives tailored and detailed feedback on their effort. Because writing is a form of self-expression, it can be more than just fun; it translates thoughts and emotions into words. Anyone can benefit from these techniques.
