Storylines committee for a few years now.

the time this residency is being offered -two Danish artists -a writer and a
children’s book illustrator will also be in residence.

restored 1912 villa, is located
on a 5-acre property on State Highway 2. It is 1 km north of the Mt Bruce
National Wildlife Centre, 5 minutes south of Eketahuna and 20 minutes north of
Masterton. This is the perfect location to forget everything else you HAVE to
do and get on with the work in progress with no interruptions.
