Opposites exhibition - the Feilding and District Art Society

Natasha from Ashhurst - Pohangina

104 Manchester St, Feilding

Opposites is a celebration of works by two artists who are opposites in every way. David Mawson captures natural scenes and landscapes in his beautiful acrylic paintings of water, bush and sky while Graham Brandreth-Wills captures our attention with outside-the-box abstract art created using various mediums and surfaces.

Join us for the opening celebration of the Opposites exhibition this coming Tuesday, the 2nd of February, from 5pm at the Feilding and Districts Art Society, 104 Manchester St, Feilding.

Everyone is welcome to attend and admission is free.

The exhibition runs to Saturday the 20th of February.

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!
