Passchendaele: The Belgians Have Not Forgotten
- Passchendaele: The Belgians Have Not Forgotten Venue: ANZAC Hall Featherston Date: 17 July – 16 August Hours: 10am – 4pm daily This exhibition focuses on how the memories of New Zealand still live on in Flanders today, 90 years after the devastating conflict that cost so many young kiwi lives. These memories are brought to life through images, movies and artefacts. New Zealand lost more men during the 100 days of fighting than any other commonwealth country - 845 on one day alone during the First Battle of Passchendaele, 12 October, 1917. The people of Flanders and, more widely, the people of Belgium have never forgotten this sacrifice, which is commemorated in this very special exhibition.

South Coast Gallery on Cuba - 29 June, 169 Cuba Street
- Texture
- It’s almost a blink-and-you’ll miss it affair. Hidden away in a little nook down Cuba Street, is the inner-city child of Island Bays finest art space - South Coast Gallery on Cuba. The Island Bay version of the gallery was first established in 2006, a neat little place to view and pick up some local or international artworks - after a little relax time on the beach that is. The Bay version is view by appointment, so it’s kinda nice to just be able to amble in and out of the Cuba premises whilst on the way to/from work or play.
