PERSPECTIVES EXHIBITION

PERSPECTIVES

‘Perspectives’ is a photography exhibition by local creative and dancer Sierra Diprose. This project is about activating spaces in the neighborhood, and finding inspiration in places you would not normally expect to find it in. It is about taking the time to see the spaces through a fresh lens, and capturing empowering images. There will also be photographs displayed from a few local schools that Sierra has had the pleasure of working with through ‘The Creative Human Project’ workshops. Thanks to Creative Henderson Massey and The Henderson Local board for supporting this project.

Sunday Girl Exhibition

SUNDAY GIRL POP-UP EXHIBITION

This all female group show is a platform for expressing and sharing a woman’s worldview as we operate our multi-tasking layered lives as daughters, sisters, mothers, partners, thinkers, givers, workers, and creatives.

25 diverse artists will be celebrated – it is a spotlight on the female artist and a challenge to the bias that exists in the commercial art world.

Curated by Leela Bhai, this annual exhibition will consist of established, experimental and unexpected artists, all encouraged to exhibit under a pseudonym. Artist names vary from poignant symbolism, personal anecdote or just plain silliness, with the tales of their origin often shared on opening night. Each piece may represent a past self, vision of a future self or a particular thought pattern from half an hour ago and the wide range of mediums reflect the diverse range of women participating in the show.

Opening Night
Friday 8 April 2022
6pm

Exhibition
9 April -10 April
11:00AM – 6:00PM

Cultural Sector Emergency Relief Fund

Manatū Taonga (Ministry for Culture and Heritage) has announced the Cultural Sector Emergency Relief Fund is now open.

This $5 million fund of last resort, supports cultural organisations, including sole traders, at clear risk of no longer operating viably. Manatū Taonga has created this fund because there are parts of the sector that are not eligible for support from other agencies.

This Fund is open to cultural sector organisations, including businesses and charities who have current legal status in New Zealand, and also to sole traders who have a New Zealand Business Number.

What could organisations who are eligible for the cultural sector emergency relief fund receive?

subject to eligibility requirements and the availability of funds, the amount of funding would be the difference between the organisation’s revenue and expenses over the six-week period following their application.

subject to the availability of funds and again meeting eligibility requirements, organisations could apply for an additional round of support at the end of six weeks.

Organisations will be able to receive up to $100,000 from the Cultural Sector Emergency Relief Fund, sole traders up to $30,000, in total across all application rounds.

What can the funds from the cultural sector emergency fund be used for?

Organisations can use the funding for essential business expenditure, such as staff salaries, fixed operational costs for the duration of the funding period, business debt repayments and for ongoing costs for projects, and/or activity that is essential to continued operations. Funding received from the Cultural Sector Emergency Fund cannot be used to rebuild cash reserves, future planning costs (e.g. risk assessments), or capital expenditure. Organisations submitting subsequent applications for additional support will need to demonstrate that the previous funding was appropriately used and will need to again meet eligibility criteria.

Apply now
