Holidays

Everyone needs a holiday every now and then so we're off to Melbourne for a bit. Melbourne is such a great place to relax and unwind, take in the fantastic culture, and get inspiration on so many different levels. We're got a friends apartment just off Chapel Street, handy as hell, and oh so dangerous for the wallet!
New Zealand Fashion week is just around the corner, don't forget to check out their site http://www.airnzfashionweek.co.nz/ take a vote there's free Air New Zealand travel to be scored.
Take it easy, and we'll check in after our break.

crossover

"A hub that creates opportunities for emerging creative artists, designers, musicians, poets, performers, and all that are interested and passionate about being involved in the creative industry."Created by Fifi Cheung and Aubrey Rodriguez, with pioneers Jane Sullivan, Majlinda Hoxha, Sin-Mae Chung, Yayu Gao, Marigona Xharra, Ya Kun Cai and supported by Janet Lilo, Rachael Garvey and many more, we want to be able to create opportunities for all those struggling artists who have no place to go to practice their art and especially to showcase it to the public.
Crossover was envisioned in March 2009 and was brought on by the initial plan of being able to gather strands of emerging New Zealand artists that make up and hold New Zealand's contemporary identity. Crossover represents the many disciplines of art that crosses over each other; from photographers, painters, fashion designers, graphic designers, to musicians, poets and writers, Crossover is a name that symbolises the collaboration of the diverse art disciplines in New Zealand's creative industry.
ATL was approached by crossovers Co-director Aubrey Rodriguez to be part of the event September 2009 at Reagan Lee Gallery
