Cachaça (pronounced ka-SHA-sa) is a famous alcoholic beverage of Brazil distilled from sugar cane juice. It is most commonly associated with Brazilian national cocktail Caipirinha, being an essential ingredient of it.
Belinda Carrigan graduated with a Master of Music (with distinction) in violin performance from the University of Auckland as well as a Post Graduate Diploma from the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, United Kingdom. To complement her academic achievements, she has many years of experience as a freelance performer with various orchestras and chamber ensembles. Apart from performing, Belinda also teaches violin privately and at various schools in Auckland.

He combines folk and classical approach in a unique fingerstyle guitar playing that also reflects the multi-ethnic influences of his early years in Indonesia.

Member Profile
TSB Bank Wallace Arts CentreThe TSB Bank Wallace Arts Centre is Auckland’s exciting new cultural destination. Located in the historic Pah Homestead in Monte Cecilia Park, Hillsborough, the arts centre opened to the public in August 2010.
Pah Homestead was fully restored by the Auckland City Council together with the generous support of TSB Bank from 2009 to 2010 as the new home of the James Wallace Arts Trust and its collection.
The arts centre hosts a changing programme of free exhibitions curated from the James Wallace Arts Trust collection as well as regional touring exhibitions. The arts centre will also run ongoing community education programmes targeting Auckland schools and the wider public.
An artist in residency programme in association with Otago University is an important component of the arts centre. This partnership also provides for exhibitions curated from the extensive collections of the Hocken Library.
Many thanks to the Auckland Decorative and Fine Arts Society and its members who provide ongoing support to the centre through the provision of volunteer docents.
