Jacquin Trio concert
The Chamber Gallery in the Rangiora library is a beautiful venue for the Waimakariri Community Arts Council's final week night concert of the year, and it’s going to be amazing.
This London based trio who are noted for their fun, passionate and energetic performances will thrill you with music by Mozart and Schumann, Max Bruch, a piece written just for them by Charlotte Bray AND a wonderful piece by New Zealander Gillian Whitehead!
I think these three women are absolute live wires! Here is a quote that says it all, “.. they roared through it in a way that was intoxicating for the audience… They are marvellous performers.” Strings Attached Music.
WEDNESDAY 9th October
Chamber Gallery
Rangiora Library
7.30pm
Adults $30

Tickets are available from the library beforehand or you may let us know and we will have one waiting for you at the front table.
Be there or miss out? I’d rather be there! Ka kite!

Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
