CHRISTCHURCH CITY LIBRARIES AND NEW ZEALAND MUSIC MONTH 2009
20 April 2009
Christchurch City Libraries is right behind New Zealand Music Month this year, with a programme that includes almost 50 live performances, education programmes and sponsorship of CHARTFEST.
It’s the eighth year in a row that our library network has supported the national initiative and this year local musicians will perform at 15 different libraries – an increase of seven on last year. Visitors to libraries are also encouraged to take part in a CD borrowing promotion that includes prizes of APPLE products and music vouchers.
To extend the reach of our support for New Zealand music outside of our libraries, we are co-sponsoring the KiwiFM Christchurch City Libraries Pulse Stage at CHARTFEST 2009 – Christchurch’s largest annual indoor music festival. We will have a strong presence at this event, including the promotion of an online competition to promote our library youth site: thepulse.org.nz
