Acrylic Dirty Pour Workshop - Saturday 19th January
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.
Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?
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).
