Christchurch Heritage Week 2008
17 Oct 2008  - 25 Oct 2008

Christchurch Heritage Week 2008
Christchurch is planning to celebrate one of its zingiest eras with the Beca Heritage Week in October. Beca Heritage Week 2008 theme – Retrospective: Christchurch Life, Architecture and Design 1940s-1970s - will take you through the 40 years following the end of World War II, from immediate post – war times, to the Rock and Roll of the 50s and the Rockers and Mods of the swinging Sixties through to the disco decade of the ‘70s. The goal of the Retrospective theme is to celebrate the innovation, achievement and milestones of this period drawing on aspects of popular culture, music, transport, fashion, interior design and architecture.
A particular focus of the Retrospective theme will be the architecture of the 1940s-70s. Beca Heritage Week is a great opportunity to celebrate our surviving buildings of this era which represent a ‘Christchurch style’ of architecture that fired up the nation’s imagination at the time (yes, even Aucklanders were impressed at what our architects were producing in the 1960s), and which have shaped the City, contributing to its uniqueness and character that we appreciate today.
