School Holidays at Feilding Art Centre

The Feilding & District Art Society

It’s set to be a rainy, grey school holiday break. Luckily, Feilding Art Centre is offering plenty of opportunities to have fun and learn new skills over the next two weeks.

Tomorrow, come along to Colour and Collage: Kids aged 8-12 will work with artist and printmaker Katie Russell to make a mixed media artwork.

Friday July 15: The teens and adults among us can learn to make Leaf and Feather-inspired earrings with Rholene Singleton.

Tuesday July 19: Bee Creative will show your 8-12 year-olds how to make a mask inspired by the Day of the Dead Festival.

Wednesday July 20: Bee Creative returns to make felt toys with kids aged 8-12.

And of course, there’s always our ever-changing schedule of exhibitions taking place in our downstairs gallery!


To see everything that’s going on and register for any (or all) of the above classes, be sure you visit our website.

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!
