Poland in New Zealand

Picture Me is a festival of children's book illustration, which features three artists from Europe - Antje Damm from Germany, Aurore Petit from France, and Piotr Socha from Poland.

Piotr Socha is known for his humorous drawings. His books "Trees," "Bees" or "Dirt" are known not only to readers in Poland, they have been translated into more than 20 languages. From September 11th until September 19th, the first part of the Picture Me festival took place in Wellington. We cordially invite you to the second part of the festival, which will run from September 26th to September 28th in Christchurch. It is a chance to participate in art workshops, exhibitions, or discussions with illustrators, all free of charge. Sign up here:
