Pop Up Events in Auckland’s Mid Town
About a month ago I started a new contract organizing pop up events in Auckland’s Mid Town CBD. So far this project has been so much fun! My employers have been kind enough to trust me and leave me to go at it with full creative control. This has given me the opportunity to work [...]
Paint day @ a RWC Fan Zone

Art Speed Dating
Art Speed Dating was an ART WEEK event, hosted in the iconic St Kevins arcade this past Friday. It matched art world know-it-alls with art world novices for an evening of questions and answers. To be honest, we had no idea how the night would pan out, but thought it would make for some good laughs, if nothing else.
