The Feilding & District Art Society

Entries for the Feilding and District Art Society's 2022 Art Awards close in less than two weeks!

We’re encouraging artists of all ages, from anywhere in the country, to submit their best new work and have a chance at winning a share of our $6,500 prize pool.

Whether you’re a sculptor, a photographer, a watercolour painter, a printmaker, a master of mixed media assemblages…

Maybe you’ve been an artist for a lifetime, or perhaps this will be your first time exhibiting…

You could be from Christchurch, the Coromandel, or somewhere in between.

With six prize categories plus the Gull Supreme Award on offer, there is space for every artist in this year’s awards.

All artworks entered will be exhibited from October 14 to November 16 at Feilding Art Centre, including during Art Trail Manawatu. So, put yourself on the map and submit a piece online now at www.feildingartsociety.com....

We cannot wait to see what you’ve created!

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!
