I've blogged before about John Scott's Futuna Chapel as one of my favourite New Zealand buildings, and this weekend you can visit and look around almost as much as you like: the Friends of Futuna have an open weekend including videos, stories and a 'haunting' -- and also a talk from Nick Blake on the architecture of the chapel at 8:30 each evening. [Hat tip Idiot/Savant]If I were in Wellington, I'd sure as hell be getting along there.
When: Friday December 15th - Sunday December 17th, 10am - 10pmRELATED: Architecture, Wellington
Where: Futuna Chapel, 62 Friend Street, Karori
How much: Free!

I'll be there... Futuna is just down the road from my grandparents place, and I have watched in horror as the larger grounds around it were sold, and a retirement home sprung up around it. Travesty.

Den MT: So how did this go, Den?
Never made it unfortunately. The whole weekend was taken up with entertaining my girlfriend's jet-lagged family and I didn't get to sneak away.
I would have though Tom Beard might have posted on it? I'll have a look... It is a shame though...

Oh, bugger.
I did look, but I think Tom was exploring mystery bars instead.
