Have you ever wanted to try acrylic pouring but been put off by the cost of purchasing all of the materials or worried about the mess?
Well here is your chance to do just that without the start up costs or the mess.
Just purchase your own acrylic pour 1 hour experience. Our tutors will guide you through the process of acrylic pouring. Pick up to 5 different colours, mix them yourself, add your mediums and then pour the paint to make your own unique painting filled with flowing colours, shapes and cells.
We supply everything, and you will go home with your own unique 12x12" canvas, ready to hang on your wall.
These experiences usually retail for $75 but to celebrate our first Arts in the Park event we will be offering them for $39.95.
Painting takes place at Arts In the Park, 19 Jan 2019 and we are running a workshop every hour on the hour for people to come and have a go.
What do I do?
To purchase your picture email us at office@artsforhealth.co.nz and we will direct you to our bank account and confirm what workshop hours work best for you - Easy! Then come along on 19 January 2019 with your confirmation email or show us on your phone, to Norris Ward Park, Tristram St, Hamilton (the park app the Girls High) and have some fun.
This is a fantastic opportunity to do with your friend or the kids, (yes they will get dirty but we provide aprons and gloves, so only half messy)
Choose from 5 time slots 10am, 11am, 12 noon, 1pm & 2pm.
This is a fundraising event for Arts for Health Community Trust. Thank you for your support.

The annual event was in full swing on Friday, when Stuff visited.
Among the 1400 kids were 11 from the Sinclair family.
"I have got five running," said dad Craig Sinclair, from Tauwhare, who was keeping a watchful eye on events from his fold-out chair in the shade of a gazebo. "My sister has two who she brought over from Newcastle in Australia, and my other sister has brought four with her, up from Karori in Wellington.

How much do flash jandals cost now?

Does our driving attitude need to change?

Hi neighbours,

Does our attitude toward disability carparks need to change? Stuff Nation contributor Noel Burland thinks so.

He expressed his opinion of the topic after an article appeared on Stuff about a man in Rangiora, who had taken his nine-year-old son who has Cerebral Palsy to the local swimming pool, and found a note on his car that read: "not genuine, shame on you" on his windscreen after he legally had used a disability park outside the pool.

"The person who left the note has quite clearly made an egregious error of judgement, something that may be more common than we realise,
" Burland said.

"That error was the fact that not all disabilities are visible and this person was completely wrong to assume the family weren't entitled to use the park - despite the fact they had the proper disability card displayed on the dashboard of their car."

So we want to hear your opinion on this topic. Have you ever faced a situation like this in your community? Do you think most people understand the rules around disability carparks? Do drivers need to improve their attitudes? Share your thoughts in the replies below.

kind people making difficult situations easier -- cat hit by car

He is recovering well. This post is about the lovely young woman and the gentleman with her whose car my cat ran in front of. They stopped, scooped him up and bought him to us, She was very upset and I'm hoping someone reading this may have heard her talk about this and can pass on a message to her that the cat has survived and, given recovery time, will be fine. She was so distraught and obviously cared a great deal and the thought that she has this horrible experience to finish 2018 with really saddens me. -- who knows if someone may know her. I know it's a long shot but I feel I have to try. In my concern for my cat at the time I failed to get their names or numbers. They were the ones who contacted the emergency vet for us and showed us great kindness and caring, instead of just dumping the cat and running. There are such good people out there.
