Here are some more photos of our District Market that was on a few weeks ago. It was such a great day, we can’t wait to go to market again!
Decadia were there styling vintage. The ladies looked so good themselves it was had to resist a makeover.

Our Market Day a few weekends ago went down a treat. With deliciousness supplied by both The Caker and Hotel DeBrett‘s kitchen, bargain galore at RUBY and Smoove’s tents, vintage do-ups thanks to Decadia, beautifully quirky one off’s from Pauanesia, great music (personal highlight was the steel drum band that turned up in the back of a truck!) from George FM etc etc. The day was beaut.
Some photos below if you missed out and some more to come.
The Black Fridays Black Ticket competition was redeemed last weekend… Grant and Nat Patterson said they had a fantastic time spending up large in High Street. “Everyone has been great to us, all the shops really getting into the spirit of it. We’ve had the best time.”
From a big breakfast at Rakinos where they were also given a bottle of wine, to spending vouchers at Ruby, Pauanesia, Jewellers Workshop and Smoove (where they made the purchase that won them the prize), to a gourmet pizza dinner at Cassette Nine and a beautiful room on the 26th floor at Metropolis residences… it was a High St day to remember.

ANNA MILES GALLERY, upstairs at 4j/47 High Street opens a very special show
SARAH HILLARY
Floating
Preview: Wednesday 23 November 6 – 8pm
Sarah Hillary’s painting often forms associations between the art she works with in a professional capacity and art she encounters in her personal life. As Principal Conservator at Auckland Art Gallery, Hillary can spend days surveying the surfaces of some of New Zealand’s most revered paintings under a microscope. In Floating, she turns her attention to the intimate world of the gift. The shells she has painted on have been given to her by friends and relations. The subjects she has chosen to paint are parts of gifts to her and members of her family.
Exhibition runs till 22 December 2011.

Jane Sanders ART Agent on level one of the Blackett’s Building on the cnr Shortland & Queen Street brings you new paintings by
DES HELMORE
Being there. Where?
Preview 23 November 5.30 – 7.30pm
Des Helmore has always been fascinated with the environs around him, be it a rural or city landscape. He reduces details and brings the world around us into the abstract. It is often the seemingly incidental features, which provide attraction for Helmore and act as signifiers of the type of site depicted.
Helmore’s new suite of works Being there, where? will delight both those familiar and unfamiliar with his work with their beautifully painted surfaces as he parles with Google Earth!
