Stunning light projection for fallen soldiers

MyHastings May Anzac Day1

As part of this year’s ANZAC Day commemorations, in the week prior, the names of Hastings residents who lost their lives in World Wars 1 and 2 were featured along with poppies on the outside walls of the Memorial Library, as part of a near 18-metre tall light projection.

RSA Hastings president David Holmes believed it was the first time such an outdoor art work had been developed to honour fallen soldiers.

“It was a beautiful way to honour those soldiers who died in battle and helped shape the wonderful country we live in today, and a fitting monument for our children and grandchildren, to help us preserve their memories and honour them.”
