Town’s art deco to be shown off
FROM fashion parades and murder mysteries to guided tours of the architectural beauty of Innisfail, be prepared for the annual Tropical Art Deco Festival.
Organised by the Innisfail and District Historical Society with the support of a Cassowary Coast Regional Council community grant, the five days of festival fun marks the six annual event on from 16-20 September.
The society will host two shire hall tours, three art deco history guided town walks and the historical cemetery walk.
“We’re thrilled to be able to bring Innisfail’s art deco history alive for locals and visitors,” said society president Trish Ernst said.
“The tours are an added attraction for our town which showcases our distinctive art deco architecture combined with fascinating stories of the town’s people and events of the past,” she said. Ms Ernst said they were great value for money.
