CONTACT ZOE 021 1522286 or through this site.
Stephen Taberner is a Christchurch lad best known for his leadership of the Australian based Spooky Men's Chorale who will be centring their second visit to New Zealand around appearances at WOMAD NZ. He also has 26 years of experience in cultivating ecstatic, grooving, blended sound from mere mortals. He's led singing weekends, choirs and large scale events all over the world.
WED 7th MARCH 6PM-THE SNGING CURE-In this workshop, he'll present his own cocktail of funky originals, thinking person's pop/rock, georgian delicacies, and cherrypicked world music bon bons, and use them as a portal into a world where open ears and a goodly collective pulse take us to a place where the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. No previous singing experience is needed, just the desire to lend your voice to the greater cause. This will be an experience to leave your feet tapping, your chest zingling, and your heart light. $20
THURSDAY 8th MARCH-AN EVENING WITH STEPHEN- He takes to the stage with his double bass to titillate your ears with a sly array of quirky, funky and melancholic songs exploring, amongst other things, uninvited massage, the delights of doing absolutely nothing at all, and the archetypical small man syndrome. $20

International Volunteer Day - 5th December 2024
This International Volunteer Day on December 5th, we want to take a moment to celebrate the incredible people who give their time, energy, and hearts to help others. The theme this year ๐๐จ๐ฆ๐๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐ฒ๐จ๐ง๐ reminds us that volunteering comes in all shapes and sizes, and thereโs a way for everyone to contribute.
Volunteering though isnโt just about one day, it happens every single day, in big ways and small. To everyone who steps up to lend a hand, support their community, or just make someoneโs day brighter, thank you.
