Extravaganza Craftier Than a Tailed Weasel

ARTCRAFT
Saturday 10th March, 10am - 4pm, Civic Square

A highlight of Telecom Prospect 2007: New Art New Zealand’s public programmes, City Gallery Wellington’s ARTCRAFT is a market day extravaganza celebrating all that is crafty.

Come to Civic Square for an eclectic range of stalls run by local art and craft practitioners.

Christchurch based artist Jacquelyn Greenbank, known for her Prospect crocheted crate of corgis, will be running artist workshops –your chance to learn how to crochet sushi.

Throughout the day Too Many She Jays will be stitching together beats, and at 1pm The Butchershop Quartet will be providing some ‘hackappella’entertainment.

If wet or windy ARTCRAFT will move inside, filling every nock and cranny of the Gallery with crafty fun. ARTCRAFT, so crafty, you can stick a tail on it and call it a weasel.
