Albert Hall - the simple, elegant building at the heart of our national capital - was Canberra's only performing arts centre for its first 40 years. The venue for weekly dances, art exhibitions, and tours by the Royal Ballet and the Australian Ballet, Albert Hall has also hosted citizenship ceremonies and important national occasions. This beautifully illustrated book shares the history of this Canberra landmark for the first time.Historic buildingsAustraliaCanberra (A.C.T.)Canberra (A.C.T.)Buildings, structures, etcCanberra (A.C.T.)HistoryElectronic books.Historic buildings994.71Coltheart Lenore1026338MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910478860103321Albert Hall2441204UNINA
