In September 2016, the Āniwaniwa Visitor Centre near Lake Waikaremoana designed by John Scott was demolished by the Department of Conservation, despite widespread opposition from the architecture community and heritage advocates.
Jeremy Hansen will lead a panel discussion exploring the life of the building, considering how we value, understand and provide stewardship for architecture in Aotearoa, and how we navigate the cultural, economic and social forces that might determine a building’s end.
Booking is free here. Spaces are limited.
