Needed- Artist/Graphic Designer/ Graffiti Artist

Eli from Kelburn

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. 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.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.

Can anyone give advice on how to do this? I have already reported the interference to the neighbourly team.
