    • WBL: Results Round Four
      • So tonight I messed up with giving people their lane assignments, which probably means that it's possible that ClickSuite might have thought that they'd won their round, and Clemenger might have thought that they'd lost theirs (oh who are we kidding, Clemenger would never think that, and that's why we love them), but as it turns out, it was Bowltron who were the winners on the night.

    • Turn OFF your lights - 8-9pm tomorrow (Saturday)
      • Support the Earth Hour initiative tomorrow (Sat 28th) and turn off your lights between 8pm-9pm. But it will be dark! I know ... fun eh!? Light candles, play spooky games (I recommend Werewolf) or tell ghost stories - in essence HAVE FUN! And it's not just about the lights, that's the minimum. If you can turn off anything else then do so - how about turning off the computer!!!

    • Shrinkage?
      • Many people have asked us why the colossal squid specimen was so much smaller than anticipated when we thawed it. Initial reports suggested that the specimen was considerably larger than the final measurement of 4.2 metres in total length. We suspected that the specimen had shrunk (rather than the size being greatly exaggerated!). In order to test our theory we purchased several fresh arrow squid

    • Dark Waters
      • If you head on over to fish central, we’re diving deep into the murky depths in order to protest S92A. We’re sure you’ve heard all about it, so we’ll spare the diatribe. However, things arent all gloomy. Check back in a day (or two) to find a newly re-emerged fish - things will have changed…

    • Earthly
      • We Wellingtonistas have been strong supporters of Earth Hour in the past, and even though Keith Ng gave it a damned good fisking over on Public Address, we're still behind the concept. And so, it seems, are a lot of local bars and restaurants, with Wellingtonista favourites Fidels, Sweet Mother’s Kitchen, the Southern Cross, Caffe Italiano and Trade Kitchen among the many places offering can

    • Club Code of Conduct
      • It's fitting that with all the furore publicised over the last few weeks highlighting the behaviour of players, coaches and supporters...  that we roll out our club Code of Conduct.The Executive committee has been working on these for the past 6 months so its not a knee jerk reaction to current issues within the Capital Football region. Please read these carefully and adhere to them!

    • First class citizens at last
      • If you're a pedestrian, sometimes it seems as though you're the last to be considered. Other modes of transport get all the big bucks while we get to stumble along on our own, catching our heels on the cobblestones and dodging the seemingly interminable earthworks. So it's nice to see that there's a dedicated Cycling and Walking journey planner from the Greater Wellington Regional Council

    • Statues or Fun?
      • So, $350 000 for a statue that will be passe in a couple of years. One of those statues like the Queen Victoria ones that cities try to fob off on each other. Yet, those events that help to make Wellington a great place to live or visit like the Cuba Street Carnival and the Newtown Fair can't be held for lack of money. How absurd!

    • Dessert anyone?
      • I’ve been thinking about the fabulous desserts I’ve had in recent times around Wellington (prompted by another couple of really good inhalings over the weekend). I think we’re pretty spoilt with the number and variety of options frankly. Some that stick in my mind (and I do confess to eating a few, so these truly […] The post Dessert anyone? appeared first on The Wellingtonista.

    • Embedding Artist Space in the City: Co-Design the Manifesto
      • <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > People’s Cinema, Urban Dream Brokerage, Manners Street, 2013-15 Tuesday 12 March 2019, 10am-5pm Atrium, Te Aro Campus, Victoria University of Wellington, Vivian Street $25 - Covers Lunch. Register Here Now Enquiries: mark@lettingspace.org.nz Temporary art projects in cities are well and good while there’s space for them. As seen in Wellington with Urban Dream Brokerage, Letting Space over the last 9 years, and in numerous independent examples over decades: they enliven, develop city identity, transform spaces and seed new arts infrastructure. But, when a city is gentrified – with artists’ residence safely contained within events – the ability to enable the change artists inspire and provide in a city is limited. It is in allowing for the common spaces that things seed in vibrant, resilient cities. This is a call to artists of all stripes to join Letting Space and the artists in the city for a day to sprint-write a manifesto of actions to support artists with space in Wellington to be presented to Wellington City Council for its Decade of Culture (2018-2028). This is our shared development space for independent artists in Wellington. What models do you like? What has worked here? What are the opportunities we could be taking up? How do we seed more permanent development space? From big ideas – taxes on empty buildings – to the more immediate actions - guidelines on working with property owners. From new performance residency spaces to artist group housing, these models have proven to be vital to cultural cities’ vibrancy. Let’s empower change together. Best, Sophie Jerram and Mark Amery February 2019

    • A City for People
      • Decades of inaction have meant house prices are out of control, while old rental properties rot out from underneath us. A whole generation of people are at risk of being forced out from the central city into new suburbs sprawling north, spending hours every day in traffic jams. We believe the Spatial Plan will allow Wellington to plan for the future so that new generations of Wellingtonians can share the city we love, and have a chance to live in a home that is affordable, accessible, healthy and warm.
