THE 6th SCAPE CHRISTCHURCH BIENNIAL WILL NOT GO AHEAD AS PLANNED




Due to the extraordinary circumstances of the recent earthquake in Christchurch, New Zealand,  SCAPE will not be going ahead as planned 4 March – 17 April. The SCAPE Team of staff and trustees, and their families, are safe and have been able to get to a secure place.

Our thoughts are with our friends and neighbours who have suffered loss at the hands of this tragedy.

The Trust and SCAPE Team will meet to discuss the future of SCAPE once the city has settled and begun the difficult healing process. We would like to thank everyone for the offers of assistance and support at this difficult time.
