Back to the 80s Photo Competition
While the 80s brought us many things we’d rather forget – bad perms, stonewash and shoulder pads – it’s also left us with a legacy of terrific family films. We’re screening a series of fantastically fun 1980s films in Wellington June 13 – July 18, in partnership with the Square Eyes Film Foundation and with support from Wellington City Council Creative Communities. See the programme here.
We’re also running a Back to the 80s photo competition. Send us photos of your best 1980s outfits (either vintage 80s photos or 80s outfits recreated today) to be in to win prizes, including a Season’s Pass to all screenings in the Back to the 80s series and classic pick n’ mix lolly packs.
To enter the competition, email a digital copy of your 1980s photo to news@ngataonga.org.nz, or post it on the Ngā Taonga Sound & Vision’s Facebook or Twitter pages, or post it on Instagram and tag @ngataongasv
All photos submitted will be published here on the Gauge blog.
Entries close 2pm, Friday 12 June 2015.
Please see the competition Conditions of Entry at the bottom of this page.
To give you some inspiration, here are some photos of Ngā Taonga Sound & Vision staff in our most fabulous 80s outfits!
Some of us are too embarassed to be identified for our crimes against fashion – I wonder if you can guess who’s who?
