PAPAKURA ART GROUP INC.
Hi Everyone,
With less than a week to go until our Annual Competition the pressure is mounting to get paintings finished.
You are welcome to come along and see exactly what we get up to. There is a door cover charge of $5 and a chance to vote for 'People's Choice' followed by afternoon tea included in the door cover charge. This will be held at the Old Central School Hall 57 Wood St opposite the Police Station on Wednesday 3rd October between 1:30pm- 3pm.
After the Competition we have an Exhibition in the Edmond Hillary Library commencing Monday 8th October through until Saturday 20th October when you will be able to make purchases.
Hope to see you here or there over the next few weeks.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
60.1% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.7% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
-
85.2% Community feedback and transparency is needed.
-
14.8% No. This would be impossible in practice.
