STUDIO REOPENING Next Saturday!
So excited for our first studio Paint Party since lockdown! Woohoo! ππ¨π
It all kicks off again next Saturday 11 July with Painter's Choice, where you get to choose what you'd like me to teach you how to paint. Only 2 seats left if you want to join me to create your own painting. Loads of our favourites to choose from. It's gonna be super fun.
Saturday 25 July we'll be painting Tui-Tastic in the studio.
Or you can join me online, Saturday 18 July for my Virtual Paint Party, and learn to paint Oriental Bay from the comfort home.
If you've always wanted to learn to paint, jump over to my website to find out how I can help you create your own masterpiece. π¨+π=π
Paint with you soon.

and physically join with a single bite.
What am I?

Celebrating International Volunteer Managers Day
We had a wonderful morning celebrating Te Whanganui-a-Tara volunteer managers at our International Volunteer Managers Day breakfast event.
It was inspiring to bring together local change-makers to discuss this year's theme: 'what's our future normal?' We shared reflections and aspirations for how we can play a role in shaping a stronger and brighter future for the voluntary sector.
Thank you so much to our generous sponsors Lighthouse Cinema, t leaf T, The Candle Shop, Wonderland Chocolate, Zealandia and Oat Cafe.
