Focus on Arts
Make sure you listen to "Focus on Arts" on 104.7FM this Sunday at 11am (repeats next Thursday 6/10/22 @ 8.30pm), as Mahara Gallery's Janet Bayly chats with Grant Stevenson from SeaGrass Gallery, 38 Moana Street, Ōtaki Beach - he's having open days at the studio for every Saturday in October (there's 5 Saturday's!) from 10am till 5pm - FREE admission with 17 artists work on display, so visit "Mahara Pops up at SeaGrass" this weekend, and keep listening to also hear from weaver Cassandra Archer, who's work is currently featured at Mahara Iti, Mahara Place, Waikanae. Cassandra has just about completed the only full-time weaving course in the world! How cool!
A great listen - and make sure you visit Mahara Iti, weekdays...soon, and SeaGrass Gallery on Saturday!
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.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
