Repurpose your unused digital devices!
We want to close the digital divide!
As part of the Depots' Artslab programme, we support 180 unemployed creatives find work every year.
We usually provide laptops at our workshops but due to lockdown we can’t, so some of our creatives are feeling very isolated and struggling to apply for work.
Recently on RNZ it was revealed that on average each NZ household has 6.5 digital devices but only two thirds of these are used.
We want to set up a programme whereby you can drop off your unused digital devices to us and we will repurpose them.
So if you have an old phone, tablet or laptop that works please get in touch: artslab@depotartspace.co.nz
Alternatively, you can drop them off on Wednesdays 11am - 5pm during the current lockdown level 3. We will have a staff member present those days.
Thank you in advance!
Some Choice News!
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!
