Waiata In The Woolshed

You’ll all remember the exceptional intelligence, articulation and common sense shared by Dr. Aikman at Waiata In The Woolshed in Feb 2025. At this event, Pounamu spoke about his research and writing in producing this title, which is hot off the Bridget Williams Books - BWB press.

Wild Earth Yarns Ltd promotes what used to be a given in New Zealand: knitting yarn harvested on NZ farms and processed in NZ. Now, it’s more common to see NZ wool processed in China (sometimes at half the “cost”). Wild Earth Yarns is a family-operated and friendly supplier of pure Aotearoa wool … thank you, Jacqui, for your listening ear when Mum had just had her accident. Lambkin is finished and will hopefully prove to be a suitable pick-me-up.

“What These Walls Remember” opened at City Art Depot on Tuesday evening and I was overjoyed to sneak a pic with artist Stephanie Postles. Her colourful new oil paintings - on canvas and panel - lit up a beautiful space upstairs.

Charlotte Watson’s delicate ceramics need to be seen to be fully appreciated. Her display, “Awash” was exquisite.

I met some interesting people, including many artists, and enjoyed checking out this space that offers conservation framing. I recommend you stop to view these current exhibitions, which end on 18 May.
