ANZAC DAY - OPEN DAY 
Thursday 25 April, 11.00 - 2.00pm

Can't come for ANZAC Eve? Join us on ANZAC Day to see through the building, and view the Sara Hughes artworks in the North Chapel.

In 2015 we established The Art of Remembrance, the first of what has become an annual, artistic project to honour all who have served this country at war and in peacekeeping.  The current Art of Remembrance, visual art project, is Colour Quartet by Sara Hughes.

Bring home your artwork of remembrance to support the preservation of the Soldiers’ Memorial Church & its new life as Kāhui St David’s – for inspiration, community, and remembrance. 

Watch our video below to learn more about the project and to pre-order your own Sara Hughes Colour Quartet artwork visit kahuistdavids/artofremembrance
