Seven strong artists, referred to as the seven sisters by curator Claire Chamberlain, are represented at this month's 'Building Bridges' exhibition at Mairangi Arts Centre, and as part of the 125 Suffrage national event programme. At the opening, on Saturday, 22nd September guests enjoyed wine and cheese while viewing the diverse and beautiful works and talking with some of the artists themselves. Family of the late Betty Maxwell were also in attendance and stories were shared of how their parents helped develop urban Mairangi Bay in the 1960s while Betty continued her painting and pottery work, some of which is on display. The exhibition is on until 25th October.
