MISSING

It's true... the Enjoy sandwich board has gone missing!!

Pictured here in 2005 (beckoning visitors to Caroline Johnston's Lucky Sod), the sandwich board has informed many-a pedestrian of the curious happenings upstairs, and been the bane of many-a volunteer's afternoon in lugging it back inside at closing.

We'd love to hear anything about where it may have ended up, leads ect. One can only imagine (GIVE IT BACK!)

in dialogue

Darryl Walker's off-site project in dialogue at Karori Sanctuary went off with a bang last Saturday, among tranquil surroundings. Here are a few images I shot before I squeezed in some bird watching...the resulting sound-sculpture will be installed in Enjoy's stairwell from Wednesday June 10.

Also a date correction: Walker's artist talk will be happening at Enjoy this Saturday, June 13 at 2pm, hope to see you there.

in (bird) dialogue

As you may have noticed a symphony of native bird song has returned to Te Aro in force, via the work of Wellington artist Darryl Walker, and her show in dialogue at Enjoy. There is an opportunity to become a collaborator in the exhibition this weekend at Karori Sanctuary, Wellington...should be a lot of fun too!

"In conjunction with World Environment Day, Darryl Walker is working with audiences off-site at Karori Sanctuary on 6th June (10.30 – 12.30 & 1.30 – 3.30 pm).

Participants will be given the opportunity to learn the songs of indigenous birds from the Wellington region. Each person’s final rendition will be recorded, forming a sound sculpture to be installed in the historic stairwell leading to Enjoy, as part of Walker's exhibition."
