Get ready for Living Hurstville: Portraits of a Community!

Hurstville City Library, Museum & Gallery is about to open a new in-house exhibition Living Hurstville: Portraits of a Community.

Living Hurstville is an exhibition all about peering into the lives and interests of our neighbours. That’s right, we’re giving you permission to be nosy!

Our photographer has captured some beautiful images of people who live, work and play in the Hurstville local government area. Come and see your barista, your pharmacist, your taxi driver, your personal trainer, to name a few. Most importantly, find out what really makes them tick.

The exhibition shares some amazing and intriguing stories and highlights the diversity of our community. Stay tuned over the coming weeks as we share some of our participants' interesting stories with you.

Living Hurstville: Portraits of a Community will be on display at Hurstville Museum & Gallery from 20 July - 20 October 2013.
