More than 30 artworks will be on display, ranging from paintings and photography through to ceramics and sculpture.

Toi Onehunga includes works that explore the rich heritage of the Onehunga area, from maunga to sea, as well as subjects from further afield.

The event is curated by Auckland artist Isaac Trebilco, who has selected a diverse range of works from more than a dozen local artists.

Since 2019 Isaac has been working on a series of portraits featuring ahi kā and members of the #ProtectIhumātao campaign, which will be displayed at Toi Onehunga.

Isaac’s work also features as part of WWF-New Zealand’s ‘Whale Tale’ 2022 immersive public art trail, with his work entitled ‘Our Hands’ located near the gallery on Onehunga Mall.

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?

Margaret Jane from Mount Wellington

Hello fellow power users
I am expecting you have noticed your power bills rising dramatically.
Do you know that the government has sanctioned the removal by the power companies of the Low User charges as it was seen to be unfair to high users? . This decision mostly affected the elderly the one person home and the conservative people.
This is in a time when NZ is having trouble generating power and is running out of gas. There is no incentive to save power.
Recently the power has gone up twice and mostly in the daily rate which means no matter how long you sit under a blanket to keep warm and try to reduce the bill, you will not change the result.
Please consider contacting your local MP or party leaders of our current government asking them to get these charges in oder. They tell us Power and Rates are causing the highest effect on our raised inflation.
As it is election year this is the best time to affect a reaction by Govt to a very serious topic.
Winter will be here soon to remind you.
