Very proud to have designed the Ceasefire Rally campaign for the PSNA & Palestinian-led Coalition in Ōtepoti. Pick up your free A3 or A4 poster from Woof! in Dunedin, put it up at work, school or home, and head to the weekly rally!

A good day to remember that when Cyndi Lauper visited Aotearoa this year, she unequivocally supported trans New Zealanders.

FREE PALESTINE red, green, white and black bumper sticker on the screen of a car.

Folks, I've designed a bumper sticker to raise koha for the Palestine Children's Relief Fund. $5 on the bar at Woof! in Ōtepoti. Woof! passes on 100% of profits to the PCRF, who are doing all they can for the kids suffering brutality. Please support!

This is one of the reasons I left Aoteroa - ongoing support for this assaulter. The 89 people in the arts who wrote letters of support *after* he was found guilty of assaulting us, and now the parole board. Thank god for the jury, who saw Wallace for who he really is

And you too mete! Kia ora

Thank you lovely Jasmin! I hope so. Looking forward to getting stuck in with whatever I can get amongst over there. Take care over here too, and keep up the mahi x

Thanks so much Justin! That was so long ago eh...2006!

Thank you Christine, and to you on yours.

Thank you Chewie :) Take care!

Thanks so much mete x

Thank you Tanya, it does feel right. Appreciate your message.

Thank you, that's lovely.

Thanks so much Helen, all the best to you too

Thank you as always for supporting me and my music over the years, even when I’ve stepped away for a while. Take care of each other, and always keep in touch. Aroha, (8/8)

So I’m launching an Archive Sale on my website today to find new homes for these pieces. All vinyl & CD stock is reduced: last chance to buy physical editions of my albums. End of an era! Head through before it’s all scooped up: dudleybenson.com/shop (7/8)

In the meantime, I’ve been packing up life, and found all sorts of treasures from my work over the years. Bespoke garments that I wore in various performances and rare, long out-of-print editions of my EPs and albums. (6/8)

In Naarm, I’ll be spending the next year being an artist again. I’ll be putting the finishing touches on my next record, which will be out next year, with a tour. Where Zealandia was a brain album, this is a heart one. (5/8)

...the activism, and pivoting through the pandemic. I’m so proud of us all for making Woof! what it is, and how it will continue to grow. (4/8)

Since 2020, Woof! has been my primary project. It’s given me a great sense of satisfaction to work alongside Josh Thomas and our team, who I love. To me, Woof! is defined by our day-to-day patrons & friends, the queer club nights... (3/8)

Leaving Ōtepoti and Aotearoa is emotional, and I’m holding an enormous sense of gratefulness for everything this place has given me in my 40 years – especially our people, and our nature. (2/8)

As they say, some personal news from me: at the end of October I’m moving to Naarm/Melbourne. For a while now I’ve been in one of those life stages of wanting change. (1/8)

Outrageous and unacceptable Vicci, I'm sorry you suffered this. Full support in putting energy into finding this racist. I hate to think what he does and says to people who may be more vulnerable and less-savvy than you.

Woof!'s Cocktail of the Month is a pearl-green essence of the gods: 💧Fountain of Youth💧

Crystalline echoes of peppermint, botanicals & aquavit served on crushed ice: aquavit, lime juice, Zubrówka, blanc vermouth, crème de menthe, Fernet-Branca & Green Chartreuse.

On the menu from 4pm! 🐶

Thank you Matt, you're most welcome any time

Our 2020 Election Night was big big big, and so much fun. Make sure you get in early and secure a spot, from 4pm.

Lock in your voting plan now, and we'll see you at Woof! on Saturday 14th October!

We're hosting you for Election Night at Woof!

· 4pm open
· 4.30pm Soapbox Poetry feat. Coco Solid, Chris Tse, Ati Teepa, Ruby Solly & more
· 7pm Rolling election coverage
· Frozen margaritas in the party colour of your choice

No matter what the results, it's good to be with friends!

I'm voting Green! Why? Because they're the only party with policy responding meaningfully to the climate crisis. Because the Greens care for the most marginalised in our communities, and show up for our LGBTQ+. For the Greens, it's not about power or knighthoods, it's about our future

Kia ora Tanya!
