Hi

I’m wondering if there is someone who would be kind enough to help my daughter and I out please. In my garage I have a double bed base and a very delicate unit which we need to transport from my property to hers. Her partner has lost his licence, she is on her learners and none of their friends are prepared to help them out.

She has asked on Facebook on Pay it Forward, gift it forward, but people are telling what to do and not offering any help. If someone could help out I would appreciate an awful lot.

Thanks

Have you ever wanted to try acrylic pouring but been put off by the cost of purchasing all of the materials or worried about the mess?
Well here is your chance to do just that without the start up costs or the mess.
Just purchase your own acrylic pour 1 hour experience. Our tutors will guide you through the process of acrylic pouring. Pick up to 5 different colours, mix them yourself, add your mediums and then pour the paint to make your own unique painting filled with flowing colours, shapes and cells.
We supply everything, and you will go home with your own unique 12x12" canvas, ready to hang on your wall.
These experiences usually retail for $75 but to celebrate our first Arts in the Park event we will be offering them for $39.95.
Painting takes place at Arts In the Park, 19 Jan 2019 and we are running a workshop every hour on the hour for people to come and have a go.
What do I do?
To purchase your picture email us at office@artsforhealth.co.nz and we will direct you to our bank account and confirm what workshop hours work best for you - Easy! Then come along on 19 January 2019 with your confirmation email or show us on your phone, to Norris Ward Park, Tristram St, Hamilton (the park app the Girls High) and have some fun.
This is a fantastic opportunity to do with your friend or the kids, (yes they will get dirty but we provide aprons and gloves, so only half messy)
Choose from 5 time slots 10am, 11am, 12 noon, 1pm & 2pm.
This is a fundraising event for Arts for Health Community Trust. Thank you for your support.
