Central Otago District Arts Trust

Hello

What's On in Central Otago - March

Happy March everyone... plenty to see and do this month so get out and enjoy what's on in Central Otago.

The annual Wedderburn Woolshed Photography Exhibition will be open to the public from the 15th March. This is a group exhibition of works by Central Otago photographers and part of Arts on the Rail Trail 2017 project. The Wedderburn Woolshed will be open daily from 9am - 4pm, entry is free and everyone is welcome. All works will be for sale.

If you haven't been already - get along to see Nigel Brown's 'I AM/ WE ARE' exhibition at Central Stories Museum and Art Gallery in Alexandra. Nigel Brown is one of New Zealand's foremost contemporary artists and  'I AM/WE ARE' features 27 works which span 35 years of Brown's career. This exhibition finishes on the 26th March so don't miss out!

World renowned community development specialist, Mr Peter Kenyon will be presenting interactive workshops in Alexandra and Cromwell on the 8th and 9th March. Peter will explore with the community - where we are now, where we want to be, and how to get there.  Peter has worked with more than 2000 communities in Australia and around the world to facilitate fresh and creative ways that stimulate local community renewal. Everyone is welcome to this free event. For further information and registration details click HERE.

The biennial Arts Gold Awards exhibition, a prestigious event for visual arts in Central Otago, will be held again between September and November of this year. Entry dates for this event will be formally announced in late March so keep an eye out for details.  Arts Gold is an enterprise led by the Central Otago District Arts Trust which recognises excellence in art both nationally and within the Central Otago region. This year the Central Otago District Arts Trust will work in partnership with Central Stories Museum and Art Gallery to present the fourth edition of the Arts Gold's Awards competition and finalists exhibition.

Finally, a reminder that entries for the 2017 Rural Women NZ Wool On Creative Fashion Event close on the 17th March 2017 - garments to be received by the 27th April.  Don't delay! click HERE for further details and an entry form.
