Hi everyone,
With Christmas fast approaching, we'd be keen to hear from those who spend the festive season (or part of it) away each year. Where do you go and why? What makes it such a great place to be at this time of year? What are you most looking forward to about the trip? Any words of advice you may have on things to do or places to eat or drink in the area would also be much appreciated. As usual, please put 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you don't want it included in a travel article. Cheers.

Transfigured: a display to challenge people’s idea of art

A new art exhibition at Taupō Museum will “challenge people’s idea of what art is” with a contemporary collection of digital art opening next week.

Museum exhibitions officer Kerence Stephen said the exhibition, Transfigured, was by Wellington emerging artist Daniel Metcalfe who was chosen specifically for his innovative approach.

“Earlier this year we sent out a call for artists looking for a recent graduate or emerging artist working in a contemporary style that we could support by giving them the opportunity to exhibit here,” she said. “We wanted a summer exhibition that would challenge people’s idea of what art is – something to ponder and absorb.”

Transfigured fit the bill perfectly, Ms Stephen said, and Metcalfe was invited to exhibit.

“When Daniel’s proposal came in, we loved it, it was just what we had in mind,” she said. “It was a great concept for a summer exhibition and we hope museum visitors will enjoy it.”

Museum staff hoped to exhibit graduate and/or emerging contemporary artists’ work annually following this exhibition.

Transfigured will be on display in the main gallery at the museum from December 19 2020 to February 1 2021.

Visitors are invited to come and meet Metcalfe between 10am and 2pm on Saturday 19 December. He will also be holding an artist talk nearer the end of the exhibition, with a time and date to be confirmed.

Entry is free for children and residents with proof of address and the museum is open 10am-4.30pm daily.

Hi neighbours, we're keen to talk to people who live near a busy railway line - commuter or freight - about the pros and cons of the location.

What's the noise disturbance like? Do you notice it?
Was your house cheaper than others in the area?
Is the easy access to transport the reason you bought there?

If you can answer any of those questions, we'd love to hear from you. Please leave a comment or email homed@stuff.co.nz with your name and details. Have a great day!
