Friends of the Whanganui River Movie Night

 The Friends of the Whanganui River are an invaluable historical source of information about the river, about those who have lived on or near it and about those who have plied its waters. 

In addition to producing the Whanganui River Annual each year, we also investigate additional ways in which we can achieve our goals and screening movies with aspects of the river included is one such way.

A  newsletter is sent out every month informing members of upcoming activities and other interesting tidbit and in addition, a number of trips are organised each year to some part of the river catchment, evening lectures or films are presented.

The films are screened at the AutoBarn Cinema within Boyd’s Auto Barn Museum on the corner of Pickwick Road and Great North Road, Whanganui and are limited to 16 seats.

All film screenings include a supper of Tea/Coffee & biscuits.

The Following films are scheduled for screening:
