Join us in making a collaborative artwork in the kids activity area at Pataka. We will be creating a huge collaborative masi (tapa cloth) drawing for the duration of the Double Vision exhibition. We will have a lot of fun with stencilling and colouring techniques. This activity area is available at all times just inside the main gallery doors.

Friday talks |
|
Friday 23 July, 12.15pm
Jennie Sherwin is a jeweller exhibiting in the Pataka shop. Jennie will talk about her Jewellery.
"My interest was born from an early passion of constantly creating things of beauty and observing my mother model jewellery from copper and precious stones. My jewellery is produced with flare and imagination, with no two pieces being the same. Glass beads, embellishments, crystals, antique brass, gold, feathers and pearls are the preferred materials I use to craft my jewellery. In a similar vein my art is my personal reflection of landscapes, objects and the abstracts of life," says Jennie.

Further information on the above exhibitions is available on the website www.pataka.org.nz.
We are grateful to the Friends of Pataka for organising our Friday lunch time gallery Art-2-Go talks. |
