We like this Limited Edition 2010 Calender on AilseOne, designed by Antonio Carusone

Eric Orr is an artist from New York. He has been to New Zealand a couple of times since 2007, he’s a good dude, and a legend painter. In March he gets together with The Underwater Collective from Hamilton. A live draw is on!

This Saturday the weather will be perfect and the tide will be high. Which makes the Soul Sessions a must.

This is a great day for kids too.

Check out these designers using Google Maps to show off their portfolios, looks like fun. For details on how it is being done check out googlemapsmania. Who isn’t crazy about google maps?

On 4th February, head to St Kevins Arcade, K Road for First Thursdays, a social arts gathering featuring emerging artists, live music, performance and specialty crafts.

First Thursdays offers a fresh perspective on art in a unique social atmosphere accompanied with creative individuals and overall good vibes. The St Kevins shops will be open during the event and the art walk will extend to Verona and KFM Gallery.

It runs from 6-9pm and is free to the public. Don’t miss out on this fun night! Last time there was a surprise performance.

We like the work of Kyle Bean from the UK. Mobile Evolution is our favourite. What’s next in line?

Cross Street Studios are having a closing exhibition. Cash and Carry styles, so first in first serve on what will be a manic mix of local art.

We just watched this at lunch time. It is another great documentary by Gary Hustwit. You may have seen his other film Helvetica.
