Opening Next Week: Brilliant Colour by Katie Russell

The Feilding & District Art Society

From June 21 through to July 20, Katie Russell presents Brilliant Colour. Through the medium of relief printmaking, Brilliant Colour celebrates the vibrancy and joy of gardening. Growing plants, whether it be an indoor jungle or a frilly flowerbed, is a mindful experience that removes us from the stress of our busy lives. Katie translates that experience into brightly coloured, patterned woodcuts and linocuts.

Celebrate Brilliant Colour by joining us for a Meet and Make Session with Katie from 4-6pm on June 29. In this drop-in session, you can have a go at making your own print inspired by the exhibition! All materials, plus light refreshments, will be provided. Koha entry.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
