ART OF MAKING + WASHED UP + Q&A with Artists

Directed by award-winning local filmmaker Wanda Lepionka of CraftInc. Films, the films intimately draw us into the artist’s world to hear their story of their art, how they move through their space, what motivates them, their links to the beauty and power of the South Coast, and their tūrangawaewae. At its heart, it's an homage to the artist, their creativity, their art, and their place.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="caret-color: rgb(136, 136, 136); color: rgb(136, 136, 136); font-family: Aptos;
