Rural Recollections – Revisited. Exhibition by Manawatu artist Graham Christensen
Exhibition Opening 5.30pm Saturday 24 Oct, Yellow Church Gallery, Mangaweka
Graham’s solo exhibition Rural Recollections opened in March, and closed just a week later due to Covid19. The opening of ‘Rural Recollections – Revisited’ is an opportunity to join the artist in celebrating the re-opening of the exhibition, which includes several new works completed during lockdown.
You are invited to join us at 5.30pm on Saturday the 24th of October for a BBQ and complimentary drinks to celebrate the occasion. There will be an opportunity to chat to the artist and of course enjoy some great art.
There is no charge and no need to book – everyone is welcome. See you there!
Graham’s paintings depict his life-long love of farming and the unique landscape that New Zealand offers. His works are a reminiscence of rural life and moments in time that make up the rich tapestry of our farming communities and their significant place in our country’s history.

I twinkle and glow, guiding paths in the snow.
I’m not the sun, moon, or star in the sky,
yet on rooftops and trees, you’ll see me up high.
What am I?

Manawatu Guardian to cease publishing 😔
Sad news that the Manawatu Guardian newspaper is finishing up this month. It’s actually the only newspaper I read faithfully every week! I’d be happy to pay a small subscription to keep it going; hopefully if enough people feel the same, it would have a chance.
