Gil's creative interests, pursued throughout his adult life in the time available alongside - sometimes instead of - his proper jobs, included music (making it, helping others to make it, promoting it), sculpture, painting, and making digitised images from the many photographs he took. Like many artists, Gil was more interested in making the work than in pursuing opportunities to promote or exhibit it. The main focus of this show is his sculpture, most of which has appeared in shows to 2015, some works on loan from their current owners. All of the sculptures are made from organic or inorganic materials to hand: junk, detritus, discarded objects - which, in Gil's hands, with his ability to see aesthetic potential and his witty sense of humour, found new life. Included in the show are a few samples of the musical instruments he also made from materials to hand: oil-can guitars and ukuleles made from home-grown gourds. There will also be a selection of the digitised images that fr

A new public artwork by Sanné Mestrom will be installed in Zetland in 2025. We are inviting YOU, as part of the Zetland community, to collaborate in the creation of this public artwork, by participating in one of our Creative Drawing Workshops at the Joynton Avenue Creative Centre. In our Creative Drawing Workshop, you are invited to inscribe a dream you have for your future-self - it could be a short sentence or a simple sketch. A love letter to your future self, or perhaps to your grandchildren. We will guide you through this process in a series of fun and creative drawing activities. Many of your drawings will be engraved into bronze and will form part of the final public artwork, which when complete, will be on permanent display for the next 20 or more years. The project will become a time capsule of your dreams: every time you, your family, and your friends return to the site, you can reflect back to this moment in your life - to reflect on your dreams, as they were, in 2023.

It stars Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci, and Cathy Moriarty. An uncompromising biopic of middleweight boxing champion Jake LaMotta - known as 'The Bronx Bull' and 'The Raging Bull' during his brief reign - LaMotta's early lessons in life were to steal and to fight, but he channelled his tough childhood into the ring.

Michelle is on a plane, watching a documentary about pandas, trying to solve a mystery. In 2020, at Lido cinema, Michelle was handed an envelope with her name on it containing $10.50 in mostly coins. But it wasn't for her. Legacy is the search for another Michelle Brasier and the exploration of all the other women one woman could have been if she'd made different choices. Reaching out to strangers isn't always a good idea, but Michelle has made lots of mistakes on the internet before. She might as well keep going. It's about sliding doors, the myth of Narcissus and building a legacy, whatever that is. Can women really have it all? Is it a good idea to fly Untied Airlines?

Regardless of one's culture or religion, ritual has an increasingly important role to play in our material and fast -pasted lives, and has linked our humanity since the beginning of time. One of the most important roles ritual plays in our daily lives is it helps us create and nourish our sense of self, as there is a deep connection through ritual that helps build community. It helps us transition, and mark the ages of our lives as passages of time, where we learn to express ourselves simultaneously in joy and in sorrow, and gives us an outlet for self-expression, creativity, trust and play. The acts of ritual motivate and move us into places sometimes harder to access. They are not only rites of passage, but they allow for our primal impulses and emotions to have a channel for expression, to assist us to step out of our logical 2D reality and find deeper purpose and connection. The power of connecting with the world in a sacred way through ritual is where we learn to see our place
