Take a Line for A Walk at Feilding Art Centre

The Feilding & District Art Society

On March 15, six blank canvases will be hung on the walls at Feilding Art Centre. We need your help to transform them into beautiful, colourful works of art... simply by picking up a pastel and taking a line for a walk.


How does it work?

• To Take a Line for a Walk, visit Feilding Art Centre between 10am and 12pm on any of four 'Painting Days'
• Pick out some pastels in colours that make you smile
• Start drawing! Take your line for a walk across the canvas in any direction you desire. Make a line that forms patterns, people, shapes – it’s up to you
• At the end of each session, each canvas will be returned to the wall for our visitors to enjoy


You don’t need to be an artist to Take a Line For a Walk – just bring a friend and have some fun!

Completed works will be sold at a silent auction on Thursday April 14, and exhibited until April 19.

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.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
