Needed- Artist/Graphic Designer/ Graffiti Artist

Looking for a creative individual to create a work of art for the Kelburn Twilight Gala. I have just finished building a high-strike carnival game and need someone to adorn the 2100x400 back panel.

I have just finished building a high-strike carnival game and need someone to adorn the 2100x400 back panel. See photo. It could be high-stike themed (a thermometer, progressively stronger animals, etc.) or abstract or kiwiana. You may have the bottom 400x400 to promote yourself, your art, your business to the people and families of Kelburn and greater Wellington. And it will be used over and over in the years to come (we hope!). While your work would be a donation in support of the school programs, I will offer $50 out of my pocket to help cover materials. The work must be completed by the end of Thursday (YIKES!) since the Gala is this Saturday. There will be some instructional text to be worked into the design which must be legible. And now- a shameless plug for the Gala- it promises food, fun, games and entertainment; come one, come all- do it for the kids! Saturday the 16th 4:00 to 8:00.

Hi,
We have just had a Pohutukawa cut down and have had it cut up for firewood. However, we have way too much so there is plenty available to anyone who want to just come round and help themselves. It's available on Brixham Way, off Rintoul Street in Newtown. There is some on the driveway past the garage just beyond the post box for number 18. There is also some up the footpath behind. Please help yourself.
Please contact eddlucas81@gmail.com for more info.
