QUIZ: Milestones and Moments – Christchurch Photo Hunt

by

Every year in October Christchurch City Libraries holds Christchurch Photo Hunt, which allows the Ōtautahi Christchurch community to share their photographs and stories.

The theme for this year is Milestones and Moments. Share your photographs of personal and community milestones. Take your photo to your local library and we will scan it and return it to you. You can also submit online or upload directly to the Discovery Wall.
