Artist wanted to join 2020 Mahurangi Artist 's StudioTrail
After the huge success of Last year’s Mahurangi Artists Studio Trail, we are looking for more artists to open their studios to the public and make the trail bigger and better.
We are particularly looking for artists in Puhoi and Mahurangi West to extend the trail.
The event invites Artists to open their studios, homes or collective spaces to visitors over one or two weekends in October. The studios form an art trail, which visitors follow with a downloadable map. This is an annual event and a great opportunity for Artist to meet the public directly and explain your practice.
The 2020 Mahurangi Artists Studio Trail will be held on the following dates: 16th, 17th & 18th of October as a pop up/ Studio event at the Old Masonic Hall in Warkworth with Artist stalls and demo’s for the public to interact with.
Then the main event - Open Studio Arts Trail over Labour weekend 24th/25th & 26th of October.
You can partake in one or both activities.

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

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?
