54 people could keep our doors open
For 25 years, Magenta Creative Space has been Whakatū Nelson’s only free, walk-in, artist-led creative space. Supporting people navigating mental health, disabled artists, rangatahi, seniors experiencing social isolation and other underserved creatives to sustain a creative practice, exhibit their work publicly, and find belonging in a welcoming creative community.
Magenta is running a fundraising campaign on Boosted at the moment for $21,000, and it’s all or nothing. If we don’t reach the target by 6 October, we don’t get any of it. There are 20 days left to raise the remaining $2,705 we need to reach our target. 54 people giving $50 would do it!
Funds raised will go to tutor wages, art materials and studio consumables, the youth programme, exhibition and gallery costs, and core operating costs including rent, power and insurance.

Politicians, policies, and everyone in between; he’s here to skewer them all.
ONE NIGHT RANT
The Boathouse, Nelson | Fri 30 Oct | 9pm
There’s three things you can count on this election year: Ministerial soundbites that age like milk, policy walk-backs hours after announcements, and James Nokise having hot comedic takes on the chaotic campaigns around the country.
One Night Rant returns in 2026 with a new hour of frenetic, furious, funny stand-up aimed at politicians across the spectrum — no party or policy is safe. Book early: this is the one show where the news cycle does half the research for a night of comedy, catharsis, and fist-shaking, boot-stomping fun.

We know you love to laugh, Nelson!
So this year, we’ve got plenty of comedy coming your way at Nelson Arts Festival. One to mention is award-winning comedian James Nokise is bringing his constant sell-out show One Night Rant to Nelson.
Get ready to cheer, jeer and laugh your way through the state of the nation as Nokise delivers a brand-new hour of frenetic, furious and very funny stand-up. Politicians across the spectrum, consider yourselves warned. No party or policy is safe!

Third performance announced for Machine de Cirque!
Due to incredible demand, we’re thrilled to announce a THIRD PERFORMANCE of Machine de Cirque at the Trafalgar Centre!

These tickets will sell fast - so if you’ve been biding your time, do not wait! There will be no additional performances released.
