Regent Theatre Music & Entertainment Sale
The highly anticipated Regent Theatre Music & Entertainment Sale returns to the main stage of the Regent Theatre (17 The Octagon) this Saturday, 6 June and runs from 10am-6pm. This is the fourth year the sale has been held as a stand-alone event, and the Regent is excited to once again welcome the community onto the theatre stage for this popular annual sale.
With thousands of records, DVDs and CDs, along with sheet music, music literature and video games, it’s a treasure trove for bargain hunters and collectors alike. All items available on the day have been generously donated by the public and carefully sorted by a dedicated team of volunteers, and all funds raised will go directly toward the continued maintenance of the 97-year-old Regent Theatre.

Dunedin Curtain Bank
Are you struggling to stay warm? Curtains make a significant difference to the warmth of a home; a third of all heat loss in an un-insulated home occurs through windows. Even double-glazed windows let out more heat than un-insulated walls. The Dunedin Curtain Bank is a community organization that up-cycles unwanted and unused curtains, lines them, and distributes them to those in need for just $5 per pair. Located at 174 Princes Street, they also accept donations of usable curtains for distribution.
Thursdays in Black
Thursdays in Black is a student-led movement working towards a world free from sexual violence, and runs events raising awareness and providing education around the issue of sexual violence on campus. Sexual violence is a significant problem on tertiary campuses, but a different reality is possible. All students and staff of the University of Otago are invited to stand together, and wear all black, some black, or a Thursdays in Black badge, every Thursday to show support and solidarity for survivors of sexual violence. The way to change statistics about sexual violence is to: see, acknowledge, understand and address these issues. If you would like to get more involved, message the Thursdays In Black Facebook page or email tibotago@gmail.com.
