New Zealand Red Cross Weave Twilight Market 2017

New Zealand Red Cross from Saint Andrews

Come along to our annual Weave Twilight Market in Hamilton!

Cross the world in a few hours by tasting delicious food from many different countries - including Afghanistan, Colombia, Brazil, Thailand, Congo, Mexico, Pakistan, India and many more. Get involved in crafts or treat yourself with something new; bring a rug or fold-out chair and enjoy the cultural performances.
The Weave Twilight Market gives an opportunity for former refugee communities now living in Hamilton to share part of their culture with Hamiltonians, while getting an insight into starting their own business. It also celebrates all other ethnic food and crafts from the many cultures presents in Aotearoa.
The sixth edition of New Zealand Red Cross' Weave Twilight Market will take place on Friday 15 December 2017 from 4.00-8.30pm. Join us at the Settlement Centre Waikato on Boundary Road in Hamilton.

See you there!

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!
