Musocoal - Draw a musician as you listen.

Megan from MEGANZ School of Visual Arts

Hi everyone,
My Life-drawing workshop (with a difference) is on the 8th August (not this Saturday but next) from 2.30 till 4.30 pm.
Time is running out to get your name down for this new and exciting workshop, drawing a musician while you listen to them play.
The musician is Ranjit Singh this time around and he will be playing his guitar and singing.
Our first workshop went well and you can check this out on my Instagram page under - musocoal
The cost is $20.00 for two hours plus a light refreshment break in the middle. Bring along some paper and your drawing tools, sit down and relax and draw for an afternoon while you listen to live music, too good to be true! It is tutorless. Come along and give drawing a go
Message me (Megan) to be on the list. Only 3 places left!
Look forward to meeting you.

Kōnae: Find Your Records

Hira Siddiqui from Citizens Advice Bureau Pakuranga/Eastern Manukau

If you want to know how to request records about you or your whānau visit Kōnae: My Records Guide konae.org.nz.

Kōnae has information on more than 60 state and faith-based organisations that have records for over 800 homes and places in Aotearoa New Zealand about people who have been in their guardianship or care.

The Kōnae map shows past and present places in Aotearoa New Zealand like children’s homes, hospitals, orphanages, boarding schools, Youth Justice facilities and many more.

Each place on the map has details about who was responsible for running it and how to get records.

The map can be searched and filtered by
- name
- location
- date range
- religion
- type of organisation.

If you want support to use the website or to find your records, you can get in touch with your local CAB on 0800 367 222, email or message via cab.org.nz, or visit a CAB near you cab.org.nz/find-a-cab

Accessing records can bring up a range of emotions, we encourage you to take care of your wellbeing. You can find suggestions of support at konae.org.nz/support
