Art Enthusiast Barbie uses Kā Kohika to look for art. She likes Ayesha Green's "Senecio Greyi" (because it's a thought-provoking reinvention of the still-life genre, and also 'cos pink). Be like Barbie and browse at kohika.canterbury.ac.nz or on its dedicated iPad in MB #Barbie

Two of Heather's paintings of UC's former campus (now The Arts Centre Te Matatiki Toi Ora) feature on tote bags and other #UC150 merch, which is being sold to fundraise for Te Kaukau a Māui scholarships, enabling more students from decile 1-7 schools to study @ucnz

Artworks created by art student Heather Masters and her peers at Canterbury College School of Art in the 1930s-1940s are celebrated in a new display in Central, beginning this week. The works are held in UC's art collection and archives, cared for by #MacmillanBrownLibrary staff.
