Invitation to the Opening of a Double Exhibition - Sat 2 - 5pm.

Alfred Memelink Artspace Gallery

You're invited to the opening of a double exhibition, this Saturday afternoon, 5th May,

The two exhibitions are :- The Art of Sarah Albisser & Paul Gadsby - Political Bird Paintings

You're welcome to join us anytime between 2 and 5pm to celebrate the opening of this new exhibition and meet the wonderful artists. Coffee/tea and other refreshments provided and enjoy the ambience of accomplished jazz pianist Bill Wollerman and friends.

'Apocalypse Now' Oil on Board by Paul Gadsby from his political bird series. This painting raises the issue of whether there should be a ban of aerial use of 1080 poison to prevent more kea deaths. Given the birds relatively high extinction risk, the use of 1080 poison is likely to accelerate the demise of the kea before the end of this century. The current number of kea is less than 1,000.

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!
