Connections - Create 2019

Queens Wharf’s Connections photography mentorship programme is back for its sixth year, and applications open Monday, 2 September to enthusiastic, hard-working photographers of all abilities.

Internationally renowned photographer and Sony NZ digital imaging ambassador, Tom Ang will mentor, advise and guide a group of ten photographers over six weeks to create a stunning exhibition of photography and multimedia to be displayed on Queens Wharf in December through to April 2020.

The theme this year is “Create”, a topic sure to inspire a varied and compelling range of artwork to display.

The lucky participants will attend the free six-week course every Monday evening from 6pm in Auckland’s CBD starting 7 October to 11 November.

Tom and the Panuku panel will review applications and select the successful applicants who will be contacted on Friday, 4 October 2019.
