SUMMARY:Astronomical Interests of Fairfield's Atkinson Family.
DESCRIPTION:Nelson Science Society and Fairfield House have the pleasure of hosting an informative evening as part of Nelson’s Tuku 21 Whakatū Heritage Month.\n Duncan Steel will talk about two remarkable members of the Atkinson family and their astronomical interests. Arthur Atkinson who built Fairfield House\, observed the Transit of Venus in 1882 on a 4″ Browning telescope. In 1885\, on his new 8″ Cooke Telescope\, Arthur observed a total solar eclipse.\nThe 4″ Browning telescope used to witness the transit will be on display before and during the talk.\nArthur’s great-nephew\, Harry Atkinson\, had an asteroid named after him and was Chairperson of the European Space Agency \nPlease register your interest in attending at /www.fairfieldnelson.org.nz/contact/

SUMMARY:French for Rabbits & Terrible Sons
DESCRIPTION:Wellington’s ethereal dream-pop gems French for Rabbits are pairing up with Terrible Sons for a weekend away in the South Island. They will present their dreamy\, perfectly-paired music to lucky audiences in Nelson\, Blenheim and Onekaka\, before French for Rabbits head off to perform at Wanaka’s Festival of Colour.\n_______________\nFrench for Rabbits released a handful of singles in 2020 – including the soaring chamber pop of ‘The Dark Arts’ in December which is the first single from their forthcoming album (due out later in 2021). On the tour they will be presenting new material alongside their intimately beautiful collection of previous releases.\nThe band are known for their welcoming presence\, animated banter and effortless songwriting – that spans both the intimate and expansive.\n______________\nTerrible Sons released their much anticipated EP ‘Mass’ in February. Having racked up over 18 million streams on previous singles\, it may come as a surprise that the Nettwerk-signed duo from Christchurch have never toured. The duo consists of LA Mitchell (Fly my Pretties) and Matt Barus (The Dukes).\nAbout Mass: “ ……. a stark\, quiet collection of deeply romantic songs that hark back to the sweeping indie glory of Kings of Convenience and Feist. It’s the kind of music that feels destined to soundtrack the idiosyncratic indie cinema of the mid-2000s. It’s luscious\, organic and so\, so intimate” – Tone Deaf    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IprVIIbi6lE)  \nEarlybird Tickets $25 at undertheradar\n Door sales $30;\n  doors open 7pm; concert 7.30pm.

SUMMARY:LIFE'S ABSURDITIES & OTHER STORIES
DESCRIPTION:Nelson resident Mary Glaisyer is old. Very old. Well 70 something\, if you really want to know. And she likes telling stories. She’s always told them. It’s one her raison d’etres\, (if you can have that in plural) and she has a few. Some of her stories are funny\, some are downright peculiar and some are just … well just Mary\, if you know what I mean. Come along for an evening of non-stop enjoyment. \nMary Glaisyer began performing standup comedy in her 70’s. She is by far the oldest beginner in the standup scene in Nelson\, which has only been going about three years\, mainly at the Liquid Bar in Bridge Street.  \nMary was keen to try out a storytelling/standup show of her own\, so Fairfield House is hosting two performances with pianist Virginia Ward  playing between Mary’s “sets.”  \nWe need YOU to be in the audience! All proceeds will be going to the Nelson Tasman Housing Trust\, which “aims to increase the supply of quality\, affordable\, healthy homes and housing services for people/whanau in need.”  \nDATES: Saturday April 10 – 7pm & Sunday April 11 – 2pm\nTICKETS: $10  www.trybooking.co.nz/GUO\nLimited seating. Bookings essential.
