Resilience: The Fibre that Connects Us
Come and view the “Resilience: The Fibre that Connects Us” exhibition of felted wool artworks by Auckland textile artists Teri Berry, Julie Dowland, Lynn Hefkey, Margaret Joppa, Sarah Ritchie, Christine Roxburgh, Jaq Spirrett, and Angela Stanfield.
Held at the Franklin Arts Centre in Pukekohe from 18 June to 8 July, this incredible exhibition honours the inherent resilience of wool as the primary fibre used and the artists who work with it. It also symbolises the interconnectedness of the Auckland Felters and the wider Creative Fibre community.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕
Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
