On The Road Again

A+O will preview selected highlights from their excellent upcoming July 30th catalogue in Wellington. We will be at the excellent Chaffers Gallery again in the Chaffers Dock Complex from the 9th to the 13th of July. The catalogue represents a particularly strong offering, carefully thought through and tailored for the current market. Response to our Wellington viewing was overwhelming last time and we can only hope that Wellingtonians come out to support a few Aucklanders again. Further details coming soon...
