A Glamaphones Fundraiser
Help get The Glamaphones get to Out and Loud LGBTQIA+ choir festival in Perth this November! We are hosting an art exhibition and auction as part of Wellington Pride in March 2026 to highlighting local rainbow, queer and takatāpui artists and creatives. Our intent is to raise funds for The Glamaphones (Wellington’s Rainbow Community Choir) to attend in November 2026, where we have been invited to perform as part of the festivities. We would be very grateful if Stuff.co.nz could help us to promote our fundraising events.
The events will be held over the weekend of Friday 20 – Saturday 21st March, upstairs at Thistle Hall, Cuba Street. There will be a quiz night on that Friday, (purchase tickets $20 from Try Booking) which includes a special preview of the auction works, and sales of fixed price art works and a smaller items market. These sales will continue throughout Saturday. The art auction will be on Saturday evening. $5 door charge, limited spaces available. Tickets can be purchased here.
With over 25 rainbow, queer and takatāpu creatives visual art and textiles being showcased, there's something for everyone. We have some fixed price items as well as our auction items.
Find us on Facebook, Instagram and on the Wellington Pride Festival website.
As well as paintings, prints and textiles, we will have a range of market-style products available, including art prints, stickers, jewelry, tote bags, knitted/crocheted items, and more!
The Glamaphones choir has long been a source of musical pleasure and friendship to the Wellington region LGBTQIA+ community and beyond, both through performances and through membership. We are looking forward to sharing our music with the Out and Loud Choir Festival in Perth, Western Australia, representing Te Whanganui-a-Tara, and building network throughout Australasia and beyond!
SIKA Sound Journey – ‘Between the Worlds’
Please bring a yoga mat, pillow and blanket. Be prepared to drop into a deep space.
Door sales will be available if there is space. Advanced booking is recommended.
Between the Worlds is an evening Sound Journey shaped by over thirty years of deep ceremonial and immersive sound practice. Blending primal rhythm, atmospheric voice, deep didgeridoo, and field recordings, the journey unfolds organically — shifting from dynamic, embodied energy into vast, cinematic stillness.
This is not passive listening.
It is an experience to be entered.
As sound layers, dissolve, and reform, participants are guided into a liminal space where time softens and inner landscapes awaken. The journey becomes a passage — one that listeners don’t just hear, but inhabit.
Guided by the myth of the Wandering Forest Spirit, Between the Worlds invites a reconnection with self, with nature, and with something older than language. Ceremonial, immersive, and deeply evocative, this is an evening to slow down, listen deeply, and cross into the unseen.
It’s like a soundtrack that is crafted to go with your life.
Sika’s Sound Journeys are truly unique. They are sonic explorations that feature didgeridoos, drums, flutes, voice and orchestral elements.
A collection of foraged sounds from objects he has recorded in nature, add even more textures. Many of his sounds are completely unrecognisable and abstract. Immersed in this cocoon of abstract sound, we can find ourselves in the most surprising places in our mind. In this timeless realm, beyond the normal limitations of rational reality, anything is possible.
An epic adventure deep inside yourself.
Journey to worlds within worlds on incredible sound waves.
Sika creates a safe space to relax deeply and connect with our inner guidance. This Sound Journey begins and ends with a short guided visualisation.
There will be two journeys with an interval. Most people choose to lie down, so bring a yoga mat, pillow and blanket and get really comfortable.
A journal is also recommended.
