Quarry ARTS Centre CLOSED during National lock - down
Dear Quarry Arts Friends,
In response to government directives the Quarry Arts Centre is fully closed for the next 4 weeks. This includes the Gallery and shop, the Café, Te Kowhai Print Trust, Quarry Co-op Shop, the Woodturners group, kiln operations and all artist studios.
All exhibitions and scheduled workshops are cancelled, for the time being, and we will be unable to provide ceramics supplies or kiln services until further notice. If you have booked an upcoming class or workshop, we will make contact with you soon.
If you need to contact staff, you can do so by email admin@quarryarts.org or manager@quarryarts.org
We hope to keep you up to date as the situation develops.
Please accept our warm wishes to you and your family in these trying times.
Yours,
The Quarry Arts Team

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