My Resene Colour Your Community nomination
I would like to nominate Active Arts Taupo for the Resene Colour your Community prize. Active Arts Taupo is on 5 Redoubt St and easily seen from Tongariro Street as you enter town from the North. It is a non profit arts organization offering an environment for enthusiastic artists in a creative space to express themselves through a variety of art mediums where New Members are Welcome. It would be great to give the building some colour and vibe so it looks like an inviting place for people to go and be creative and get good fellowship at the same time. We are very fortunate to have this building where locals can go and be creative with clay, paints and mixed media, and also have a gallery where the art created can be displayed and sold - encouraging people to do more! We are fortunate to have wonderful potters who offer evening classes and daytime sessions for getting together and doing your own thing. The painters get together on Tuesdays from 10am to 3 pm and Thursday afternoons 1pm - 3pm. Mixed Media group meet on Mondays. There is always something happening for the community to get involved with. It would be wonderful to give the building a facelift with the help of new paint. We have many hands that will help apply the paint!
Poll: Does the building consent process need to change?
We definitely need homes that are fit to live in but there are often frustrations when it comes to getting consent to modify your own home.
