Fundraiser Fun - come along Saturday 17th April, 3 pm at the Old Library Arts Hub, Rust Ave., Whangarei

Fiona and Mark from Kamo

Kia Ora Friends and Whanau.

Sistema Whangarei - Toi Akorangi are having an Auction/Concert on Saturday 17th April at 3pm at The Old Library on Rust Ave in Whangarei.

The items will be on display from 10 am on Saturday morning at The Old Library so that you can see the beautiful works up close.

We hope to raise funds for our wonderful program so that young people can continue to develop as musicians and generally incredible people. We also hope to raise awareness of the fact that young people have many varied possibilities for greatness in their lives and we hope that the community will enjoy both the amazing artworks created by a young artist in our community (Zoe Watson) and also the wonderful performance by our very own Sistema students.

Please encourage your friends and whanau to come and enjoy the concert, make a donation and have some fun bidding.

Items include amazing artworks, tickets to the New Zealand Symphony, Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra, Professional Acupuncture, IT support, a guitar, earrings by Hayley Douglas, a Voucher for Property maintenance and many other items.

There are lots of amazing things happening for our young people at the moment and in order to keep up with their possibilities we need to continue to raise funds and raise awareness.

If you can't come to the auction concert then feel free to visit our website. There is a link to help you donate if that is how you would like to support. Otherwise please share our website
