SUMMARY:Dalmation Society Open Day
DESCRIPTION:Once a year\, we throw open our doors and invite the whole community in. Downstairs\, our museum and archive trace the story of Dalmatian settlement in New Zealand — well worth a browse whether you’re a member\, a descendant\, or simply curious. Upstairs\, there’ll be a kolo workshop at 1pm — a chance for everyone\, young and old\, to try their hand at traditional Croatian dancing — followed by a folklore concert at 2pm. \nThe Society will be serving traditional Dalmatian food for both lunch and dinner\, and their stall will have Croatian delicacies for you to take home. \nEntry is by donation; food and stall items are sold separately. No bookings required — just come along and bring family and friends. \nQuestions? Contact events@dalmatian.org.nz or 027 428 1922.

SUMMARY:The Broken Heartbreakers @ Artworks Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Ōtepoti’s longstanding indie folk favourites The Broken Heartbreakers have emerged from the mists to announce their brand new album\, as well as a full nationwide tour this September.

Featuring exquisite cover art from Dudley Benson\, and mixed by Aotearoa’s master of noise Nick Roughan (Skeptics\, Dimmer) Imagine If We Could Just Keep Driving expands the band’s world brilliantly.
