Late Night Shopping?

Ahoy there!
Late night shopping fans - there is no Arts Centre's gallery opening reception this month so you'll have to hang on until September for after-hours browsing.

The next reception will be September 18th for a metalwork exhibition. Receptions usually open at 6pm and run until 8pm, with talks by arts centre staff and artists, plus a cash bar, refreshments, art galore and a chance to network with the city arts crowd.

But, shopping fans! Don't despair! We have extended hours coming up for the Grand Opening for the new expansion project on Saturday, September 6th. (You can find out a little more about the Appleyard project here). We open at 10:30am that morning, after the ribbon cutting and just in time for all the other festivities going on.

What can I encourage you to buy on this day? How about making sure you have some fantastic hostess or guest gifts to last you till the end of the holidays? We have beautiful ceramics to tuck away into a suitcase, dainty jewelry, local art and fine textiles that are also easy to pack.

Staycation? No worries. Drop a few hints and send your house guests out to see us ... let us know if you'd like them to "see" something special on your wishlist ;)
