2020 KAPITI ARTS TRIAL Last day tomorrow Sun 15Nov
Thanks to everyone who has already participated and supported us artists on the 2020 Kapiti Arts Trail, we all really appreciate it. Tomorrow is the last day to visit me and other artists on trail, however most of us are open by appointment through out the year. I suggest you have a look online to see artist information and photos of their work and make a plan with the maps there too.
You can look up the artists by name, area, or artist medium go to www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...
You can pick up a brochure from your local library, some coffee shops and businesses also have them or download it www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...
I would love to see you😊
I also have a KAPITI ARTS TRAIL SALE 20% off my Bronze sculpture, pounamu and bone and big reductions on my clay sculpture
Driven On The Akatarawa Rd Lately?
If so, its good to know you are still alive and reading this.
We have a function to go to over Christmas up that way and having heard a few hairy stories about the road, I went up there on Thursday to check it out. The road's ok, narrow and winding, but not much worse than a Wellington hill suburb. What was pretty scary was the behavior of other drivers. Three vehicles heading the other way at speed would have crashed into me if I hadn't been pulled off the road. I had pulled in to check the address when a truck came flying past, taking up all of the narrow road at speed. There is no way the driver would have been able to stop had they come around the corner immediately in front of me. The other two drivers came hurtling past as I had turned in to turn around and come back down the hill. They were also driving at speed and taking up most of the road. Coming back down I passed another car coming up and estimate that the safe speed to pass another car was about 30-35 kms.p.h. So, now we're thinking, do we go to the function or not.? Feels a bit like we're taking our life in our hands going up there. Drivers appear to be overconfident, and they are courting serious injury.
