Where were you in 1982 

December 9, 2019 December 2019 No Comments

In 1982 Martinborough turned 100 years old.  Maybe you were living here then, maybe you’d grown up and left, or perhaps you’re someone who has made your home here since.

Whatever the case don’t miss the chance to see the documentary made about the town, its history and its people, at that time. You might even see yourself in it!

For the past few weeks it’s been showing at Circus Cinema as part of the 125th anniversary celebrations of the old library building that now houses the museum.   It seems that some of you haven’t had the chance to see it yet so an extra screening has been scheduled. 

When:    Thursday December 12 at 7.30

Where:   Circus Cinema

Price:      Normal Circus prices ($14 for seniors and $16 for regular tickets).

A share of the proceeds will go towards developing an exhibition area at the muse

It would pay to book. Previous sessions sold out very quickly.

Circus Cinema 306 9442

Enquiries: Chris Cassels 306 8286 or 021 0716 064
