Various During the last few years, the KTP has embarked on a mission to increase the national awareness on the value of our quality of life in Malta, especially through the appreciation of our heritage – the Maltese heritage which also includes the Modern Movement. In the last decades, the architectural heritage of the modern movement appeared more at risk than during any other period. Many modern masterpieces have already been demolished or have changed beyond recognition. This was mainly due to the fact that many were not considered to be elements of heritage, that their original functions have substantially changed and that their technological innovations have not always endured long-term stresses. The KTP has earmarked a number of these buildings and invite you to participate in a tour directed by Dr. Conrad Thake. This event forms part of Time for Architecture 2008 and will be held on Sunday 12th October. Participation fees are as follows: KTP Members: €10 Non- Members: €12 Students: €5 The number of seats is limited and therefore we urge you to book as soon as possible, via email on info@ktpmalta.com. Cheques are to be made payable to the Kamra tal-Periti and sent by post at The Professiona Centre, Sliema Road, Gzira. Deadline for booking is Thursday 9th October. |
