Progression coming to Taupō Museum

Darren Petry from Taupō District Council

Printmaker Maggie Dawson and potter Marita Green are sharing Taupō Museum’s main gallery space with their exhibition, Progression, which opens on Friday.

Dawson is a Taupō local who many people will know for her images depicting birds, flowers and landscapes.

In this exhibition, Maggie explores her experience of a long birthday lunch which became a pivotal life event. She created a handmade book based on the event and its images combine the joy of celebration, food and friendship. The book is on display and each page is hand-printed and then bound.
