Calling ALL Artists...
Membership applications have now opened for the Kerikeri Open Art Studios Trail 2021 to be held during Labour Weekend, 23 - 25 October.
KOAST would love to hear from you if you live, work or exhibit in Kerikeri or surrounds and you'd like to join. Have a look on the website koast.org.nz... where you can complete the form online koast.org.nz.../koast-application-form/.
And of course if you're an art appreciator rather than an artist, just pop the dates in your diary!
The Trail had around 3000 visitors during 2019 - the sixth Trail - one of the most successful years to date so they're looking forward to another great Trail this year. KOAST has lots of publicity planned to encourage even more Trail Goers from out of town, so come and join us.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
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?
