New Zealand Red Cross Weave Twilight Market 2017

New Zealand Red Cross from Saint Andrews

Come along to our annual Weave Twilight Market in Hamilton!

Cross the world in a few hours by tasting delicious food from many different countries - including Afghanistan, Colombia, Brazil, Thailand, Congo, Mexico, Pakistan, India and many more. Get involved in crafts or treat yourself with something new; bring a rug or fold-out chair and enjoy the cultural performances.
The Weave Twilight Market gives an opportunity for former refugee communities now living in Hamilton to share part of their culture with Hamiltonians, while getting an insight into starting their own business. It also celebrates all other ethnic food and crafts from the many cultures presents in Aotearoa.
The sixth edition of New Zealand Red Cross' Weave Twilight Market will take place on Friday 15 December 2017 from 4.00-8.30pm. Join us at the Settlement Centre Waikato on Boundary Road in Hamilton.

See you there!

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.

But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.

Are you a Te Huia fan? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
