Colourful New Art to Cheer Up Your Living Room
Opening this weekend at Artspace Gallery on the Petone Foreshore, is a bright and cheerful new exhibition by Stephanie Crisp. Stephanie's popular paintings often feature portside houses with boats in harbours painted from her memory. She also enjoys painting Canterbury scenes on canvas, captured in wonderful atmospheric moods and painted in free and textured brush strokes which follow the lie of the land.
Whilst you enjoy the new exhibition, you can also check out the wide selection of new art contributed by over 100 other local artists as well as our unique and wide range of locally made gifts.
Thanks for your support of our amazing local artists and local business.
Our gallery is open Wednesday to Sunday 10.30am - 4pm.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
