Mahara Gallery blessing held
After 20 years of planning, fundraising and design, and 18 months' construction, the new Mahara Gallery was blessed this week by Kāpiti kaumatua Te Rakauoteora Te Maipi (Koro Don). A public reopening is expected later this year, once the space has its final touches.
This practical completion stage means the Mahara Gallery Trust can start moving back into the gallery and working on the all-important climate control systems. When the climate is stable, the Trust can move their taonga back and set up exhibitions.
Ngā mihi to those who've helped reach this milestone. It's a testament to the dedicated efforts of many, many people who've worked to achieve the vision of a museum-quality arts space in Kāpiti. To find out more about this project, visit www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
