See Hobart in a different light.
Join members of Dark Sky Tasmania for a one-hour guided walk through the city after dark and discover how artificial light shapes the way we experience, navigate and use our streets at night.
As you wind your way through Hobart, look up and look around to discover examples of urban lighting — from thoughtful and well-designed to excessive and intrusive. Along the way, explore how the light we add to our cities affects people, places and the night-time environment, and learn about the growing problem of light pollution.
Come curious, walk with us, and see the city after dark in a whole new way.
Tour: Fri 6 and Sat 7 Nov, 8.30pm (bookings required)

![Open House Hobart and the Emerging Architects and Graduates Network (EmAGN) Tasmania @emagn_tas would like to thank everyone who kindly bid in this year's annual Sheltered [Ground] Silent Auction.
We watched the last-minute bidding war on some items (looking at your chair, @other_furniture_) with absolute glee; because, together, you helped raise over $8000 for the Hobart Women's Shelter @hobartwomensshelter. Legends. THANK YOU!!
If you missed out on an item, but you'd still like to support HWS, please head to the link in bio to make a donation. Your financial help plays a critical role in supporting service delivery and therapeutic programs, and fund strategic projects such as building long-term homes. Such programs provide opportunities for women and children to lead independent and fulfilling lives.
Finally, congratulations to those who outbid everyone else – enjoy your beautiful pieces, knowing there's a string of jealous individuals who missed out. Don't worry! We'll do it all again next year.
