Hello

What's On February 2015


© Photo courtesy of Ellen Wilcox Photography & Art

Wow, it's February already and isn't this hot summer amazing! One month down and 11 to go before we do it all over again. I'm kind of sad the festive season is behind us once again as we struggle to get back into the swing of work. There were some great times had in January and a highlight for me was Waikerifest. Check our facebook page for images of this awesome festival and Bannyfest which was the following weekend and a fabulous day out for all who went.

We have a big project on the go called 'Art on the Rail Trail' which opens this Friday, Waitangi Day and sees artists exhibiting from Clyde to Middlemarch. Cafes, pubs, studios and galleries will be showcasing the work of our very talented Central Otago artists for the Rail Trail bikers and all art lovers to enjoy. The exhibition runs over eight weeks and there are lots of extra events coinciding with it - the inaugural Lauder Ukulele Festival, Festival in the Park at Ranfurly and many more, so check all the listings below and plan an adventure into the Maniototo for the near future! 

Cheers

Maxine
