The World of Wear­able Arts extra­vag­anza draws closer every day, as can be seen with the excel­lent Kirks dis­play that Tom at Wel­lurb­an was so kind to pho­to­graph and upload to flickr.

The show itself starts tomor­row (Fri 23 Sep), with the Awards even­ing at the Queens Wharf Event Centre, and sub­sequent shows on the 24th, 25th, 29th, 30th of Septem­ber, and 1st and 2nd of Octo­ber. All Shows start at 8:00pm except for the Sunday Night per­form­ances which start at 6:00pm and Sat­urday 1st of Octo­ber 2005 has a 1pm and an 8pm Show. Also note that ALL PRESALE TICKETS are SOLD OUT, but there lim­ited on-the-day sales avail­able. Head over to the WoW Tick­et­ing page for more info. Every­one’s favour­ite tick­et­ing com­pany – Tick­etek – is involved, just so you know.

And for those of you down­town today, pop into the Air New Zea­l­and centre on Lamb­ton Quay at about 12:30pm, to see ex-Wel­ling­ton pop-sing­er about town, and cur­rent-NZ Idol judge Jack­ie Clarke mod­el­ling an out­fit from the upcom­ing event. (hat-tip, nzidol blog)
