The Magpies Nest - An exhibition by Jenna Winterton

Franklin Arts Centre from Franklin Arts Centre

The Magpies Nest
An exhibition by Jenna Winterton
October 15 - November 2

Opening event:
Saturday 19 October 12-2pm

The Magpies nest is an exploration in narrative utilizing colour, texture, sound, and movement in a variety of both 2d and 3d works. Jenna Winterton brings out an element of playfulness with some interactive elements and bold colours and textures.
Transforming the gallery space into a snapshot of the artists mind, with a wide variety of stories being told from folk lore and myth to personal narratives and experiences much like how a magpie collects small trinkets, this show gathers together many interconnected but independent pieces to create a unified treasure pile of art. The works are interwoven together through materials, found object and overlapping narratives.
The viewer is invited into the nest to see and play with all the treasures the artist has created and to read about the stories behind the pieces.

What's your favourite tomato recipe?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

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.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
