Opening May 20: Peace on Earth

The Feilding & District Art Society

Feilding Art Centre has undergone a transformation. From tomorrow, when you pass through the doors of 104 Manchester Street, you’ll find yourself immersed in images of the natural and spiritual world, all representing Michael Angelo’s vision for Peace on Earth.

We’ve decided to share some sneak peaks of today’s install, but nothing will prepare you for the world Michael has created. Fish swim up toward the ceiling, native trees grow out from the floor, and colourful birds appear to fly across the walls.

Peace on Earth is an experiential exhibition featuring artwork inspired by New Zealand’s natural environment as well as icons from Michael’s own imagination. Visit Feilding Art Centre between May 20 to June 16.

Say goodbye to tyre waste

Tyrewise

About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.

The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.

Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
