Turning 'Meh' Into Wow
Turning 'Meh' Into Wow
An exhibition by Amanda Tomasoa, Angel Rage, Connie Takarangi, John Moss, Karen Hansen, Ronny Tomasoa, Tania Sunde, Vjekoslav Nemesh
Franklin Arts Centre
21 June - 12 July
Everyone knows Kiwis are very creative and clever. This exhibition is a part of a project that offers a fun challenge to artists & participants by turning an existing item heading to the dumpster into something new by recycling those used items. Thus, turning something ‘meh’ into something ‘Wow’.
Our artists created useable items visitors can buy or view. This project also encourages artists to rework a painting that was lacklustre into something they can be proud to show.
Visitors are welcome to dress up and pose with the items on show while photographers on hand will record the event.
Free entry. All welcome!

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
58.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
16% ... It is complicated
Night-time chipsealing works on SH2
From 9 to 17 February, stop/go traffic management will be in place on SH2 between McPherson Road and Dimmock Road on multiple nights between 9pm and 5am (Sundays to Thursdays).
During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
