Trees at the Meteor

.......Not that there is anything wrong with driving around Harrowfield looking for Santa's and reindeers in peoples houses' windows on balmy December nights - we just think there might be something more. Thankfully, for those who'd like a fresh experience, now is the time to celebrate - Trees at the Meteor has arrived! Putting the Christmas ham back into Hamilton. True story.

With the experience, networks and knowledge gained from 6 years producing the Easter art festival ‘Stations of the Cross', attracting 3500 to the Hamilton Gardens in 09, Trees at the Meteor will again be a sight and sound feast that brings some reflective, slowing, meditative space out of the retail indulgences and the pace and temperature of the frenzy of Christmas. We want to wonder what this Christ birth was all about.

Artists around the Waikato and further a field, have been working in studios, dining rooms, lawns and garages coming up with trees that will be exhibited in the Meteor theatre space. There will be a variety of Trees - all celebrating through design and decoration what Christmas symbolises to each artist - here in the South Pacific. There are trees from 6 genres exhibited - kiwiana, recycled, avant garde, pou, stencil art and new for 09 - the gadgetree.
