All library staff are invited to join in on some fun in Te Rua on Friday 7 July!
Drop on by between 10-11 am to mingle with the whole team before the busyness of semester two really kicks into gear!
Te Rua staff will be putting on a bunch of activities to peak your creative interests, as well as answer any makerspace questions you have. Morning tea will also be provided.
This is the perfect opportunity to gain some insight into what Te Rua has to offer so you can help give recommendations to students or even make use of the space yourself!
Keep an eye out for the event invite appearing in your outlook soon.
At the behest of Dale, here’s a wee update on my recent trip to Naarm Melbourne for their Art Book Fair, held at NGV.
As a bit of backstory – I’ve spent the last year or so helping out* with the design of a book about the Ōtautahi artist run space Hot Lunch. The space was run by some good friends of mine from 2020-2021 on High St in the city.
Hot Lunch Leftovers is the name of the book and we had a great time touring it around Melbourne. It was sold on the Christchurch Art Gallery stall at the fair, and we also had a launch event at an intimidatingly hip venue called Hope St Radio.
Other than that, we spent most of our time eating, shopping and tram hopping.
Attached are some photos from the trip.
*helped out by eating all the donuts and just hanging out ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
