Re: Next Crystillery Community Pop Up at the Riverhead Citizens Hall SUNDAY 22 October 2023 | 8am-12noon
Kia ora Neighbourly communities,
This Sunday, 22 October, 2023 we have the next Crystillery Pop Up from 8am to 12noon at the Riverhead Citizens Hall. For this month as Spring continues to make herself present, we have a wonderful collective of community locals sharing and selling their creative pieces with you. Pop in, have a look, there may be some gifts for a loved ones, crystals and fossils for the young ones or have a quick reading with Lisa. We have appreciated talking and connecting with community members over the last 5 months - and we look forward to seeing you again. As always we are supported by:
Heritage Indian Café coupons for a coffee and Saturday morning home baked butter chicken pie! from Navdeep and Anmol (Namaste!)
Bruce Davey (Carver), Chris and Karen who are Multimedia Artistes with their wonderful range of cards, artworks, gluten free wheat bags, jewellery and a selection of hand carved items.
Julie or Julz to her friends! will be with us showcasing and selling her macrame plant hangers. Julz is a macrame artist from the 80's and restarted her craft during the last few years. We are looking forward to seeing her range this Sunday,
Leonard has been silversmithing beautiful pieces of Crystillery Custom Goddess Jewels lately and of course sourcing more crystals, fossils and stone finds.
Lisa will be offering Tarot (Rider Waite) Readings $40 - 30mins. Lisa has 22 years experience in reading, with an intuitive clairvoyant/sentient/audience style. And curates a vintage/retro clothing items and will have these on Sunday also. Also to note Lisa and Leonard will be at the Crystal Visions Market - Milford on Saturday 21 Oct too...
Leonard and Lisa continue to thank local community and locality creatives for the continued support to get this pop-up market off the ground in Riverhead. Lisa recently joined the Riverhead Citizens Hall Commitee and Leonard has recently had a resolution moved by local council to see how we can bring together and support creatives in the Riverhead area more actively. We are excited to see what is possible here.
We have been running this pop - up since July 2023 and would like to thank the local community members who have come along so far. You have been incredibly supportive, and the creatives appreciate you for coming along, buying products that are hand crafted and having a kōrero/chat too.
We look forward to welcoming you to the market on Sunday, 22 October, 8am to 12 noon at the Riverhead Citizens Hall. Look for the signage outside!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.

85.1% Yes

13.4% No

1.5% Other - I'll share below

Harbour Bridge lane closure - protests
The Treaty Principles Bill was introduced to parliament last week and could have ramifications on the partnership between the Crown and Māori.
Hīkoi mō te Tiriti (March for the Treaty of Waitangi) set off from Cape Rēinga on Monday morning and is expected to reach Wellington next Tuesday. It has now passed through Kaitaia, Kawakawa, Whangārei, Dargaville and is passing through Auckland on Wednesday.
What you need to know today:
- The hīkoi is due to cross the Auckland Harbour Bridge about 9.30am on Wednesday. Two northbound lanes will be closed at some point before the crossing, and remain closed during it.
- NZTA shared at 8:50am Wednesday:
'Curran St northbound on-ramp will be closed shortly, with two northbound lanes on the Harbour Bridge expected to close from approx 9.30am this morning. Allow extra time for likely delays through this area.'
- The hīkoi is expected to go across the Harbour Bridge, in a controlled fashion before marching through parts of the CBD towards Okahu Bay.
- Auckland commuters should expect traffic disruption in vicinity of both sides of the Harbour Bridge.
Stuff reporter Steve Kilgallon was at Stafford Park on the north side of the Harbour Bridge at 8.30am Wednesday and shared:
"I just walked through Stafford Park, where there’s about 400-500 people quietly assembled and more arriving; and about 20 police standing over near the motorway off ramp. Lot of Tino Rangatira flags in evidence, local streets very busy with parked cars."
Police have shared that they will respond accordingly to any issues that may arise along the route.
