One more week left to view current exhibitions
Kia ora koutou katoa,
We currently have 4 exhibitions on at the Depot with only one more week to view them in person at the Gallery before they end next Wednesday 22 December.
Linda Gair's exhibition speaks on several topical issues including issues relating to the effects of urbanisation on our local environment.
The Members Show is an eclectic showcase of a wide range of artists with over 250 artworks all priced $250 and under.
Rhea Maheshwari is a young contemporary artist currently exhibiting her body of work which explores geometric abstraction as a method to frame transcendental ideas.
And last but not least, our very own resident artist Robyn Gibson's highly anticipated exhibition with a new body of work looks at product worship, consumer behaviour, and contrived marketing environments in the perfect world of need and seduction.
Hope to see you soon!

We're talking new year resolutions...
Tidying the house before going to bed each night, meditating upon waking or taking the stairs at work.
What’s something quick, or easy, that you started doing that made a major positive change in your life?
Poll: Would you rather: Christmas in summer forever or winter forever?
Just a bit of a fun poll to get you thinking.
If you had to live out your Christmas days, would you prefer it was a summer Christmas or a winter Christmas?

62.8% Summer

35.8% Winter

1.4% Other - I'll share below
⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
