Even I was taken aback by the fervour, kind words and support for our wee competition. A huge thank you to all on Facebook for sharing our shop location, Off 121 Tuam Street, next to the Central Library (shameless aren't I!)
De Lautour / Greig / Hammond
An exhibition of recent work by Tony de Lautour, Jason Greig and Bill Hammond opens at our NG space on Madras street tomorrow. These artists have had limited opportunities to show their work since the quakes so this exhibition is well worth a visit if you have the time.
Here's a taster of some of their work.

The curtain has just come down on the films we've been showing at Alice Cinematheque – only temporarily I'm pleased to say, until next month when our next series of films start.

Unsurprisingly, there are some stellar paintings of Canterbury high-country lakes in our collection.
