Join us this coming weekend for a special presentation being held in conjunction with the 3rd annual Design Victoria festival. Wentworth Villa curator Ben Clinton-Baker will be speaking about the architectural history of Fort Street as a complement to our current feature exhibit, Knight’s Victoria: The Architectural Photography of Harry Upperton Knight. Entitled Knight’s Fort Street, this presentation will take us on fascinating historic tour of some of the businesses and buildings that were photographed by Knight throughout his long and productive career in Victoria.
