Sex workers of Aotearoa Art Exhibition
Hello neighbours!
Just wanted to share our current art exhibition at the Depot Artspace "Sex workers of Aotearoa" which showcases 24 artworks done by sex workers themselves that give a deep insight into the lives, minds & emotions of sex workers - individually, collectively & politically. This is an annual exhibition and we are pleased to host this year's one.
We also have a talk with Q&A on a new book "Sex Work and the New Zealand Social Model: Decriminalization and Social Change" (Bristol University Press) by Lynzi Armstrong & Gillian Abel. These 2 editors of the book will be here at 12noon today for this.
Both events are free & all welcome.

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!

Poll: Is Auckland’s economy improving?
The latest reporting from The Post suggests a wave of optimism for 2026. With interest rates finally heading south, businesses are feeling more positive. But for many on the ground, the real-world recovery feels a bit like a slow-moving commute on Auckland's motorways.
