ORASpace
Rooms, verandas and wide lawns in a heritage house, open for gatherings, shoots and slow afternoons.

A pause, in a walawwa.
A heritage house among old trees, opening its doors to art, music, film, books, studio work and unhurried coffee.
The House
A walawwa, opened again.
ORA is a heritage house among old trees, opened again for the slow things. Coffee that is never rushed. Art on walls that remember. Music on the lawn, films under the branches, and books read slowly. A place to feel, and to belong.
ORAArt
Old walls for new work, a lawn for music and theatre, and a screen under the trees for film evenings.

Your work, on an old wall.
We are opening the walls of the house to new work. Our first exhibiting artists will hang paintings, prints and photographs where people slow down enough to really look.
