So we are now more than half way through 2024 – which means we are on the highway to sunshine, good times and lots of street-y goodness! That might seem hard to believe, being that June was a bit damp, a bit grey and for many of us, a time to be indoors. But, we always have an eye, and ear, out for things that add some colour to our city – and of course, we love to share them with you every month in our recaps – check out what we loved in June…
Meep’s Navigation
On the side of ELIM Church on Cashel Street, Meep’s stunning Navigation is an incredible work – poignant, fresh and loaded with meaning – from Pasifika heritage and shared lineage, to climate change’s impact, this is a serious piece that will turn heads!
Dcypher celebrates our city…
Dcypher’s amazing new work on the corner of Manchester and Southwark Streets, is a celebration of our city’s changing profile – with the new stadium in the background, not a car can be seen, the light colour palette reflecting the clean green potential of our future.
Ghostcat’s Leave No Trace trail grows…
The latest addition to Ghostcat’s Leave No Trace trail is sure to be a beloved one for several generations reared in Ĺtautahi – an iconic Wizards token – honouring the gaming arcade that was a second home to many local youth through the 80s and 90s! Take a stroll down Gloucester Street to find the subtle addition…
Nobody’s Listening…
The spelling mistake makes this even better.
Some HotD action…
Colder weather and darker nights means watching some TV is high on everyone’s agenda, right? We can’t help but include House of the Dragon in our list for June – the Game of Thrones prequel is building to some intense battles and people talking in rooms, and we love it – its a Monday treat!
So, that was our June – did we overlook anything? What would you add? Share you thoughts in the comments! We are also looking forward to some guest contributors for upcoming And That Was… entries (and other recurring series) – so if you know who we should speak to, let us know!
