It's called The Jazz Show. It happens every Sunday from noon thru 2 pm on Radio bFM. It's been going for years and we're all very proud of it. The hosts rotate and every few weeks it's Def Jim's turn. As usual, today he played various selections from his recent listening that he thought you'd all really like, including artists such as Adam O'Farrill, James Brandon Lewis and Creative Construction Company. Plus he spoke a tribute to the great Anthony Braxton, who turned 80 last Wedneday. It's a great podcast - enjoy!

50 Years On is an exhibition at Te Tuhi, uncovering five decades of Te Tuhi’s archival material and stories.
Te Tuhi’s history began in 1969 when a small group of forward-thinking creative women formed the Pakuranga Arts Society, initiated by Iris Fisher and Nanette Cameron. Since the gallery has held over 700 exhibitions featuring local, international, and nationally acclaimed artists and practitioners. Starting from the Pakuranga Arts Centre and the Fisher Gallery, through to Te Tuhi today, the exhibition is a celebration of the gallery, people, and stories over the years.
