May 1 – 7

It’s a pretty easy-going week around Hawke’s Bay. Nerdvana has taken over the Hastings War Memorial Library, with gaming, creative stuff, and drop-in sessions if you feel like something different. NZ Music Month is also getting underway, which means a few more local gigs popping up here and there including a photographic exhibition at CAN in Napier, opening with a performance by Stretch.

Nerdvana26 @ Hastings War Memorial Library (Friday 1-Sunday 3 May)
Pop in, have a look around, try a game, or just see what’s going on as there’s a bit of everything across the weekend.
