Masks of Time Exhibition

From 12th of March the Wellington Central Library will be hosting an amazing exhibition about the incredible buildings of ancient Greece. The exhibition is called Masks of Time and has big models of the Acropolis (a high hill in Athens) and the Parthenon which stands on top of the Acropolis. The Parthenon was built in 438BC – that’s almost 2500 years ago. It’s an amazing building that has survived many wars and was almost blown up by an explosion in 1687!

 

The Parthenon model is interactive, so you can take it apart and find out how the building goes together. You’ll be able to get your hands on the models at special times – check back here to see when. Come along anytime between 15th – 28th of March to check out the exhibition.
