The finale of the Open Air Movies program on Friday 8 April will feature a screening of the award-wining documentary March of the Penguins to align with Council’s Sustainability Festival on Saturday 9 April. Engaging sustainability-related activities will be provided for families prior to movie starting at 7pm.
