Staying positive during the coronavirus lockdown and everything cancelled
Like most businesses in New Zealand we’ve shut our studio for the countrywide Coronavirus lockdown. We’re all reeling a bit, like you probably are, not quite sure what the future will look like. We have faith in our country and our people though so we’re confident we’ll all rally and get through this. We’re good at being strong together when it counts, let's keep that going.
That of course means all our March and April events are cancelled. If you had tickets booked to any of our events, or a private booking, you’ll be able to reschedule to any future events or another date that suits, once everything gets back to normal. We’ll be in touch with all of you as soon as we can. Gift vouchers will still be available throughout the lockdown.
We’re also committed to sharing lots of uplifting, inspirational content with you to keep you smiling during your lockdown.
As an event based business, we’re really grateful for your continued support during this crazy time. Your support will help us get through this and hopefully help our business survive.
Keep physically and mentally healthy everyone. We look forward to painting with you soon.
Regards and blessings
Silke Hendel

The Online Garage Sale of the Summer
It's time to clean out the garage (or closet or cupboard!) and make some money back on your summer goods. Get involved with the Neighbourly online garage sale on Saturday, February 22nd.
Whether it's time to let go of your spare tent, your beach umbrella or maybe clear some clothes from your wardrobe, the Neighbourly garage sale is the place to do it - it's free and it's local!
If this is your first Neighbourly garage sale, the way it works is that you list your items individually ahead of the event and members perusing the garage sale items online will contact you to buy it.
Make sure you check out the treasure trove of bargains on Saturday, February 22nd - it's well worth a look!
