Māori Art Created with Aroha – $48
Kia ora, Neighbourly whānau!
I’m Paige, an 18-year-old Māori artist studying at Waikato University. I create authentic Māori artwork inspired by my whakapapa, whenua, and the stories of my whānau. Art keeps me grounded in my culture and helps support my studies as I work towards a future supporting tamariki in our community.
This piece is created with aroha, intention, and deep respect for our culture.
Price: $48
If you’d like to support a young local artist and bring meaningful Māori art into your home, I’d love to share my mahi with you. Ngā mihi nui!

Poll: Is the Te Araroa trail on your bucket list? 👟🌳👣
Great news for Southland adventurers! One of the toughest stretches of the 3,039km Te Araroa trail (from Kaitaia all the way down to Bluff) might soon get an upgrade.
Te Araroa Trust is aiming to raise $30,000 to kickstart a raised timber boardwalk in the Longwoods Forest, making this challenging section a little more enjoyable for future walkers.
We’re curious: Is the Te Araroa trail on your bucket list?
