Kākano Pop Up Gallery now open in Henderson!

Anusha Bhana from Kākano Youth Arts Collective

We’re popping up in Hendo over the summer!

From 3 November 2018 - 3 February 2019 we’ll be running a pop-up gallery in The Falls Restaurant car park, showcasing a selection of our artworks and merchandise - all available for purchase.

We’ll even be running some free participatory workshops over the summer period so you can hang out with us, create your own art works and learn some new art making techniques!

Proudly supported by Panuku Development.
Follow us on Facebook & Instagram to stay up to date with our exciting new project!

Also in this new community space will be The Bike Hub at Henderson, EcoMatters' second bike hub in West Auckland after its original hub in New Lynn, relocated to this new location from its previous site on Henderson Valley Road. The EcoMatters Bike Hub will be open so visitors can try novelty bikes and get free bike maps and bike advice.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Product recalls

Christine from Green Bay

I am appalled at the number of product recalls - salmon to snack balls to a huge range of toys. Not good enough manufacturers! Surely products are health and safety checked.
