Kerikeri Village drawing and painting group exhibition.
This small group was formed in 2017 to encourage Kerikeri Village residents to indulge their interest in drawing and painting.
They meet once a week for 2/3 hours and have a monthly tutorial by local artist, Judi Soutar.
They have surprised themselves discovering a variety of styles and media, and have progressed from pencil drawings to aquarelles, water colour and Prismacolor wax pencils, although their works remain small, in keeping with the workspace.
This will be their second annual exhibition, " A Small Exhibition from a Small Group" 10.00 to 4.00pm on June 22nd and 23rd, at the Kerikeri Villlage Social Centre in The Close, Kerikeri - all works will be for sale and proceeds donated to the Kerikeri Retirement Village.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
