SUMMARY:Demo days – Lunchtime Artist talks
DESCRIPTION:Free \nOpen to the Public \nRose Shepard – Art teacher and Otago Art Society President \nHow I got hooked on the NZ Wearable Art Awards (now known as WOW) \nThe first two shows were held in Spring Grove\, Wakefield where we moved to 1987.  From there the show founder and director Suzie Moncrieff\, took the giant leap from putting on a show for 30 to 40 people to hiring the Trafalgar Centre where the audience could go up to 2\,300.  I went along to the first Wearable Arts in the centre in 1990 and was completely hooked.  From that first taste of being in the audience I decided I would love to enter.  Which I did in 1991.  From that moment on I was involved with not only entering but helping to run this event creating the set in 1993.  In my talk on Sunday I will give an overview of what the early days were like\, and how this show evolved in Nelson up to 2004.

SUMMARY:OAS Workshop - Dave Atwell -  Watercolours
DESCRIPTION:OPEN to all – Bookings are to be made directly with the tutor\nBookings to dave@lakesvocational.co.nz Class limited to first six people enrolled.\n \nThree Day Workshop Hosted by Dave Attwell of Wanaka Watercolours\, Price $125.00\nAt the Otago Art Society\,  Level One\, Dunedin Railway Station in the Artzone Gallery. \n\nA relaxed\, enjoyable three‑day workshop for anyone who wants to paint\, learn new techniques and expand their knowledge of watercolour. The course is targeted at intermediate level painters or those wanting to learn more advanced techniques.\nOver the three days we’ll explore mainly landscapes\, with a little time spent on streetscapes. Each day includes a short\, easy going theory session including a brief demonstration covering either brushwork\, colour mixing\, composition\, skies\, tone\, and the key elements that bring a painting to life — buildings\, water\, reflections\, figures and more. But the real focus is your painting\, your enjoyment\, and your progress. \nMy approach: \nThis course is all about learning by doing\, without pressure\, without judgement\, and with plenty of encouragement. \n\nWe’ll endeavour to complete at least two paintings each day.\nI’ll start each project with a simple sketch from a reference photo.\nThen I’ll demonstrate each stage of the paintings in short\, manageable steps.\nYou’ll follow along at your own pace\, building confidence as you go.\n\nOn the final day\, you’re invited to bring an image that means something to you. You’ll use your new skills to create a painting that’s truly your own. \nThere are no rights or wrongs here\, just an opportunity to express yourself\, enjoy the process\, and pick up on the practical knowledge I’ve gathered from years of working in this wonderful\, occasionally maddening\, but rewarding world of watercolour. \n\nCourse runs from 10am to 3pm Wednesday\, Thursday\, Friday 19-21 August. Registrations limited to six\, email me at dave@lakesvocatiional.co.nz if you’d like to register or have any queries. \n\nArtist Profile –  Dave Attwell – Wanaka Watercolours \nDave Attwell is an award-winning Wanaka based painter who works solely in watercolour. Born in Dunedin\, Dave has always felt a strong attraction to the intense light and rugged landscapes of the Queenstown Lakes District and his love of the region is reflected in many of his paintings. He produces paintings of strong design and creates a magical atmosphere and mood in his paintings. The scope of Dave’s work features landscapes\, people at work and streets scenes. \nDave is a keen plein air painter who regularly paints around Wanaka. He provides tuition to individuals and guides small groups to some of his favourite painting haunts around Wanaka. Dave’s paintings frequently appear in exhibitions in the Dunedin and Queenstown Lakes regions. Dave’s Vineyard Series of paintings can be seen at The Return to Eden Gallery at Saint Clair Vineyard in Blenheim. Dave’s work can be seen on his ‘Wanaka Watercolours’ Facebook or Instagram Pages. \n\n\n  \n

SUMMARY:Rangi Takō Winterstellar Exhibition 2026
DESCRIPTION:Free to All \nOtago and Southland are remarkable places. Situated further south than most of the world’s population\, our region offers exceptional views of the Southern Milky Way\, frequent displays of the Aurora Australis\, and some of the darkest and most pristine night skies remaining anywhere on Earth. These skies are not only scientifically important\, but also a source of inspiration for artists\, photographers and all who take the time to look up. \n Winterstellar Charitable Trust was established to foster public appreciation of the dark skies of Otago and Southland through astronomy\, astrophotography\, education and community engagement. By bringing together artists\, photographers\, scientists and local communities\, the Trust seeks to inspire stewardship of one of our region’s greatest natural treasures – night skies that rank among the finest remaining in the world. \n  \nWinterstellar Charitable Trust has hired the OAS Galleries to exhibit this work\, and we are delighted to be partnering with OAS to bring this exhibition to Dunedin. We also gratefully acknowledge the support of Dunedin Railway Station\, whose partnership through The Taieri Gorge Stargazer experience in July helps connect people with the extraordinary dark skies of Otago through a unique combination of rail travel\, astronomy and storytelling. Their support has helped make our exhibition possible. \nYou can find more information and book tickets on The Taieri Gorge Stargazer experience in July here:   https://dunedinrailways.co.nz/taieri-gorge-stargazer/
