Acrylic Pour Class

Margherita from Ngaruawahia

Hi Everyone. We are holding another pour class.
Sept 14th Sat. 10am - 3pm
This time we have all the paint ready made and more paint available if we need it. I will be showing 6 different ways of pouring for you to follow along with or you can do your own thing.
This is the last Pouring class we will hold so don't miss out. Everything except canvases are supplied in the fee. I will have a few canvases for sale on the day at reduced price. You are welcome to bring along your own paint to mix with Pouring Medium if you want specific colours.

Email: jmrallan@xtra.co.nz if interested and I will send more details.
People who did this class in July can repeat it for $7 and new people fee is $30. You will have enough supplies and time to make at least 3 canvas art.

Marama Wade sits outside her River Rd home selling harakeke roses for $50, trying to keep food on the table and the rent paid.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
