The Design of Naenae

Kylie from Hutt City Libraries

We have a fantastic talk coming up this Friday night in Naenae!

Ben Schrader will look at design of the state houses and some of the other buildings in Naenae. Why were these places important in the 1940s and 50s and do they remain so now?

Ben Schrader is a Wellington historian who researched the history of Naenae for his MA thesis in history in the early 1990s and remains a strong supporter of the place.

Naenae Library - Friday 12 October, 6pm

Naenae Library also has a special display up ‘Snap Shot of Naenae's Past’. Why not have a wander around the display, hear from Ben at 6pm then grab some kai and stock up on veges after the talk at the Naenae Market!
