Hi everyone,
My Life-drawing workshop (with a difference) is on the 8th August (not this Saturday but next) from 2.30 till 4.30 pm.
Time is running out to get your name down for this new and exciting workshop, drawing a musician while you listen to them play.
The musician is Ranjit Singh this time around and he will be playing his guitar and singing.
Our first workshop went well and you can check this out on my Instagram page under - musocoal
The cost is $20.00 for two hours plus a light refreshment break in the middle. Bring along some paper and your drawing tools, sit down and relax and draw for an afternoon while you listen to live music, too good to be true! It is tutorless. Come along and give drawing a go
Message me (Megan) to be on the list. Only 3 places left!
Look forward to meeting you.

Random Acts of Kindness – August 1st to 31st 💞

The Team from Neighbourhood Support New Zealand

All it takes is a kind gesture to change someone’s day. From paying it forward in line at a cafe to giving flowers to a neighbour ‘just because’ - this month we’re encouraging our members and supporters to make New Zealand a better place one random act of kindness at a time.

All it takes is a kind gesture to change someone’s day. From paying it forward in line at a cafe to giving flowers to a neighbour ‘just because’ - this month we’re encouraging our members and supporters to make New Zealand a better place one random act of kindness at a time.

The options for doing so are endless! Being kind doesn’t have to cost a thing, after all a smile is free. For those who want to go the extra mile, here’s some other ideas: Buy extra kai at the grocery store to donate to a food bank, build a free community library for your street, bring treats into work for colleagues, send an encouraging text to someone who needs it, let a car into the traffic ahead of you, take a gift over to new neighbours and introduce yourself, write positive messages in chalk on sidewalks around your neighbourhood, or surprise loved ones with a visit.

This month’s theme also coincides with Random Acts of Kindness Day (New Zealand) which is coming up on September 1st.

Let us know how you’re spreading kindness in your community by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:
