Invitation
We would like to invite you to a solo art exhibition and a silent art auction that is held to raise much-needed funds to be donated to the children of Sri Lanka.
Lion Nirupa Peiris, an Auckland-based artist is donating her paintings to be auctioned at a silent auction to raise funds to purchase much-needed medicines for the Lady Ridgeway Children's Hospital in Colombo, Sri Lanka.
Sri Lanka is in the worst ever economic crisis caused by political turmoil currently. The lack of essential medicines in public hospitals is one of the aspects that need urgent attention.
All donations from this project will be credited to the Mount Roskill Baptist Church account and passed on directly to the hospital.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
