Basketball fever has reached Wanganui's arts community ahead of this weekend's HoopNation tournament.
Thirty teams from around NZ will descend on Wanganui for the basketball tournament at Springvale Stadium.
Now the Sarjeant On The Quay gallery has partnered with the Wanganui District Council youth committee for a unique exhibition of basketball shoes.
The exhibition, containing 29 pairs of Air Jordan sneakers dating from 1985 to the present, will be held at the Quay Gallery above the Wanganui i-Site tomorrow and Sunday.
The exhibition has been curated by Daniel Tupara and will be hosted by DJ Sir-Vere, who will be performing in the gallery at 11am, 1pm and 3pm both days.
