Join Chelsea Winter and Nicola Galloway for an afternoon of drinks, nibbles and all things cooking at The Summer House to hear about Chelsea’s brand new book, Nourish.
Due to limited parking at The Summer House, we recommend taking our chartered bus service to the venue. The bus will leave from the carpark next door to the Theatre Royal at 1.20 PM. Please be there in plenty of time.
There will be a return bus leaving from The Summer House at approximately 4 PM, after you have enjoyed some yummy drinks and nibbles.
We will have a box office operating at the bus pick up location for any last minute ticket purchases.
Chelsea Winter’s new cookbook Nourish heralds a joyful return to what established her recipes as household favourites – now reimagined with balance and a deeper intention to truly nourish.
Since winning MasterChef New Zealand in 2012, she has become the champion of fuss-free recipes that result in food that’s delicious, satisfying and perfect to share with family and friends. Join Chelsea as she discusses, with Nicola Galloway, her new book for the first time.
All tickets include:
All books will be on sale through our festival bookstore partner, Paper Plus Nelson, both in store at 237 Trafalgar Street Nelson, online, and at our Pukapuka Talks venues – get your copies signed by the authors after their session!
