2008 AGM

July 27 2008, 6pm

The Back Room

Wellington Arts Centre

61 Abel Smith St

It’s that time of year again… you have the chance to influence the day to day operation of the club by electing a new Committee, and raising issues that you feel the new Committee should be considering.

Sunday 8 June

At Ruth and Gerard’s, MusicHaven, 56 Park Road, Belmont, Lower Hutt

from 12.30pm

As many of you will know, Doom Kitten is taking a trip to the UK and Ireland – to explore that rich and varied musical landscape. We thought it would be neat to help her on her travels with a fundraising lunch.

Bring a plate to share with others and a paper cash donation for Doom Kitten’s travel fund. In return Doom Kitten has agreed to busk - sit in the corner and play her harp – and any other instruments we can persuade her to pick up! We might even be treated to a song or two.

Jali Buba Kuyateh - Gambian Kora player - then there's the rest of April

A week ago I was still in festival mode at Canberra (the Australian National Folk Festival) – what a party! I’ve put some photo’s on the web if you want to know what you missed http://www.flickr.com/photos/musogerard/sets/72157604303639740/
