Circle of stories workshop - led by Artist Robbi Carvalho and Dance Therapist Sarah Dos Santos

When: Saturday 29 March

Time: 10am - 2pm

Location: Weta room, Franklin Arts Centre

'Circle of Stories' is a 4-hour workshop for 12 women to explore Brazilian culture through art, movement, and self-discovery. Each participant will decorate a fabric canvas with personal stories, using collage, hand-stitching, and paint, exploring their own identity through creative expression. They will also try movements from Afro-Brazilian danças de roda (circle dances), experiencing the rhythms and movements central to these traditions. Led by dancer/therapist Sarah dos Santos and multidisciplinary artist Robbi Carvalho, the workshop provides a supportive space for creative expression and cultural learning. Open to adult women, it’s a unique opportunity to explore art, dance, and culture in a safe, nurturing environment.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
