WAIPU MUSEUM AR'NTARTAN WEARABLE ART 2021

Sue from Langs Beach - Waipu

The Entry Form for the 2021 Art'nTartan Wearable Art Awards is now available.
This exciting event in the Northland calendar missed out last year because of Covid 19 but this year all systems are go.
The contest is to be held in October and to streamline the event there is to be one big OPEN SECTION for all artists with awards being given for certain aspects of their design - in other words anything goes! All designers need is some conspicuous use of tartan. There will, of course, also be the ever-popular Mask contest for children.
Closing date for Entries is July 26th and forms can be picked up at the Waipu Museum or downloaded from their website or the Art'nTartan Facebook page. Any queries can be addressed to artntartan@gmail.com.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
