Bring Back the Blue Shed on Petone Wharf - Youth Watercolour Workshop
Do you miss the blue shed on Petone Wharf too? here's your chance to bring it back (with a little artistic license). Petone Wharf with the iconic blue shed, is the subject for the next watercolours for youth art class at Petone's Artspace Gallery.
No previous experience required and the drawing will already be done for you to enable us to focus on the joys of painting. We’ll start by painting the sky and applying free watercolour washes 'wet into wet' to create some soft edged clouds and then other watercolour techniques for the rest of the painting.
$25 includes all materials. just turn up empty handed and leave two hours later with your own completed watercolour painting and a beaming smile of creative satisfaction. (generously sponsored by Watercolour New Zealand, supporting youth into watercolours)
Saturday afternoon 1st June 1 - 3pm
Suitable for ages 7 - 17

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
