It’s set to be a rainy, grey school holiday break. Luckily, Feilding Art Centre is offering plenty of opportunities to have fun and learn new skills over the next two weeks.
Tomorrow, come along to Colour and Collage: Kids aged 8-12 will work with artist and printmaker Katie Russell to make a mixed media artwork.
Friday July 15: The teens and adults among us can learn to make Leaf and Feather-inspired earrings with Rholene Singleton.
Tuesday July 19: Bee Creative will show your 8-12 year-olds how to make a mask inspired by the Day of the Dead Festival.
Wednesday July 20: Bee Creative returns to make felt toys with kids aged 8-12.
And of course, there’s always our ever-changing schedule of exhibitions taking place in our downstairs gallery!

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

Observation about Crewcut.
Greetings all,
About 2 weeks ago I sent a lengthy email to Crewcut about getting our section tidied at Scotts Ferry. They have not had the courtesy of replying so far. I cannot manage it anymore as I'll be 88 in March if I last that long ?
