A petition you may want to sign:
"Together, Toi o Taraika Arts Wellington and Wellington Independent Arts Trust are calling for action to protect the Wellington City Council’s Creative Capital budget:
- The arts are not a luxury. They are part of how a city works. Part of our essential civic infrastructure.
- They employ artists, technicians, educators, designers.
- They support local businesses.
- They shape who we are.
- Cutting funding cuts all of that.
If you care about Wellington’s future, stand with us."

TODAY - Sat. 30th, 3.30PM
Have you ever seen an artist paint abstract works in response to improvised live music? Well, I hadn't until a couple of months ago until playing a Filtersphere show at Common Ground in Featherstone Watching Rosalie paint was immerserve and fascinating. The whole thing went so well we're repeating it this afternoon in Wellington. Come along. $10 at the door.

Doors at 3.30pm, Perpets with Rosalie Jurczenko creating 3 abstract paintings to the guitar duo's improvisation before your eyes and ears.
Then Filtersphere - improvised, ambient, exploratory - never the same twice. Nigel Baxter joins the duo with vocal effects, John Kingston with vintage Gretsch guitar and a mind-bending array of pedals that are small works of art in themselves. And the craziest drum set up you will probably ever see.
$10 at the door - Paywave (no transaction fee), Eftpos, or cash (bring the right amount). Koha is also welcome.
We're not usually much bothered about money for these events but Rosalie, Zac and Antony have travelled over from the Wairarapa to do this show and we'd like to at least cover their costs.

The GMG site will remain active as a resource for the time being (until it becomes costly to maintain).

'No Shying Away'
Nice to get this in the current Regional News free paper.
Anthony Davies will be at the gallery on Friday 14th June, 4pm-6pm for a chat and some w**e/b**r.
BTW it's obviously GMG, not GMC, not that it matters.
