IN PICTURES: Pink hall of fame hailed as King River community celebrates 120 years

Community spirit radiated from the King River Hall last Sunday as hundreds of Albany residents flocked to the pink building to celebrate its 120th year. Families enjoyed games, live music and a variety of food stalls. A video telling the stories of 15 former King River residents played on a loop inside the hall, with help from the ACE Camera Club. A new piece of metal art was unveiled at the entry to the hall to mark the occasion, depicting a horse and cart inspired by a photo taken outside the hall in 1907. The building is understood to be the oldest community hall in the Albany region and continues to be at the heart of a community it has served for more than a century.
