Peter from Stoke

We’re just one week out from the Top of the South Film Festival, next Friday and Saturday, at the Suter Theatre. It's the 4th annual celebration of the best locally produced short films from Tasman, Nelson and Marlborough. From documentaries to short narratives, there are fascinating stories being told by local filmmakers. Just a few tickets are left for the Gold Reel screening on Saturday at 7 PM. Order them now if you want to be part of the Award Presentation that evening, with Nelson Mayor Rachel Reese handing out the trophies. Or why not enjoy all 19 of the submitted films and take in the Silver Reel screening from 5-6 PM on Saturday, then enjoy the Red Carpet before the 7 PM Gold Reel screening? And don’t forget the Friday screenings of Dragoon Anthology and Gold Reel again.

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?

Earth Emotions Silent Auction

Krisca Gould from Nelson Tasman Hospice

Monday 16th February - Monday 2nd March

Bid on a special collection of 20 unframed prints by local photographers from an exhibition called Earth Emotions.

Glenn Allbrecht's book, Earth Emotions, inspired Ann Wheatley, Emma Jane Hughes and Peter Kemp to create a local exhibition exploring the health of our soils, waters, forests, and people, with support from the Nelson Tasman Climate Forum and the Nelson City Council.

Forty-seven photographers responded to an open call, contributing over 100 images. A selection of these was exhibited at the Refinery Art Space.

The photographers have donated 20 exhibition prints to raise funds for the hospice.
