⏰ 1pm

📍Calthorpes House24 Mugga Way, Red Hill

🎟️ $20 General Admission, $15 Concession (plus bookings fee)

This event is a part of Calthorpes House Open Day

This walk introduces you to some of the folks that made their lives along Mugga Way, neighbours for Harry and Della Calthorpe of Calthorpes House. Judges, scientists, the national librarian, newspaper men and captains of industry, not to mention senior public servants and more. Who were these families and what was their legacy politically, professionally and socially for the fledgling capital. And if Mugga Way was the exclusive enclave of the new Canberra, where did the workers who built Canberra live?

Wear walking shoes, hat and suitable clothing. Bring your water bottle.
