Who We Are

South Alive is an urban rejuvenation project, led by the community, with the goal of identifying the best possible future for South Invercargill and ways to make it happen.

It was established in 2012 with a small steering group, which then held a public meeting in April 2012 to generate ideas and decide priorities. Action teams of volunteers formed around each of the priority areas, and have been working since then to develop and implement projects.

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped in to checkout our Rangatahi Creatives Exhibition as part of the Southland Arts Trail on Saturday.

We got 25 entries this time round & we are so proud and grateful to showcase these special pieces ✨️

Artist Maleia Stenton, pictured below, shared a few words on being a part of the Exhibition:

-What do you love about the opportunity to showcase your art at South Alive?
"That I can see other people’s art and see inspiration from other artists for my next projects".

-If you could give a creative any advice about submitting their art for future exhibitions what would that be?
"It’s not a competition, be proud of what you have done and submit it anyway, it’s a great experience to be apart of".

-What's your favorite art to do?
"Drawing with pencils and watercolour painting".

The exhibition will still be installed for the next couple of weeks, if you would like to come and view these fantastic creations 💛
