Gidday! 03 Stickman here. We keep our prices low, but the talent high!Throughout August and September, we’re proud to be continuing our long-standing collaboration between Ara Music Arts and 03 Sessions – a partnership that highlights the deep links between education, live performance, and our local music scene.
Ara Music Arts has long been a cornerstone of Ōtautahi’s music community, nurturing generations of musicians through its vibrant programmes, expert tutors, and strong connection to Aotearoa’s creative industries. From jazz to contemporary, Ara has played a foundational role in shaping the city’s musical identity as well as graduates exploring opportunities around the world.
This ecosystem thrives when students, professionals, and audiences come together. We’re very excited to host these students as part of the 03 Sessions live series.
Come on down for Ara Showcase month and bag yourself some amazing gig deals.
