Take a Line for A Walk - Free Art Making for All Ages
On March 15, six blank canvases will be hung on the walls at Feilding Art Centre. We need your help to transform them into beautiful, colourful works of art…simply by picking up a pastel and taking a line for a walk.
How does it work? Simply join us on one of our ‘Painting Days’ – Each Saturday from 19 March to 9 April, pick a colour that makes you smile, and add it to whichever canvas is being worked on that day. As visitors come and go, the canvas will change, be worked and reworked, then hung back on the wall for the public to enjoy.
Finished works will be sold at a silent auction on Thursday April 14, and exhibited through to April 19.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
