THE Maleny Cultural & Historical Society will host a special film afternoon celebrating the life and memories of local identity Bill Hankinson (November 1940 – February 2025).
The film features an interview with Mr Hankinson, who shares personal recollections and family photographs from Maleny’s bullocky days, reflecting on the lives of his father and grandfather and his family’s long-standing connection to the district.
Rich with archival images and early film footage, the presentation offers a rare glimpse of historic Maleny and the transport methods that shaped the region’s early development.
The screening will be held on Saturday February 21 from 4pm at the Pioneer Village, 7 Bryce Lane, Maleny.
Entry is $20, including wine and cheese.
RSVP by Thursday February 19 to Laurelle on 5494 2164 or email malenyhistoricalsociety@gmail.com
