Multi media art workshops for young people...and adults
Does your young person want to learn some mixed media art-making during the 2020 Summer holiday in Devonport? Are you aged between 12 and 20 and wanting to explore and have fun with drawing and painting without having to meet school curriculum requirements?
Janet Mazenier, a Devonport local, is an experienced professional artist and art teacher and will lead the workshop. She has experience with teaching art to young people in Auckland and around New Zealand.
Attendees will experiment with oil paint combined with a cold wax medium (CWM) and other media to allow for spontaneity, fun and a relaxed way to make art.
This initial workshop aims to help young people discover, rediscover or enhance their existing creativity. It will focus on abstract painting and allows for a tactile, hands-on, screen-free experience.
Janet has a professional training background, holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts, and will complete her Masters of Fine Art at Elam, University of Auckland in 2020.
The workshop cost is $65.00 per person and includes all materials. Participants need to bring an apron or wear old clothes as this type of painting can be messy!
When: 14 January 2020
Where: Artspace Depot Whare Toi (Kerr Street)
Start: 10am Finish: 2pm.
If you or your young person is interested in attending this workshop please email Janet – janet.mazenier@gmail.com.
Janet is also teaching two x four hour general introduction to cold waxworkshops in Devonport on 17 and 18 January 2020. If you would like to enrol, please email Janet as per above.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.1% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.7% ... It is complicated

Night-time chipsealing works on SH2
From 9 to 17 February, stop/go traffic management will be in place on SH2 between McPherson Road and Dimmock Road on multiple nights between 9pm and 5am (Sundays to Thursdays).
During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
There may be delays to your journey when travelling through the area. This is weather dependent so check NZTA Journey Planner before you travel.
