Rural Life exhibition opening at the Coach House Museum, Feilding

Natasha from Ashhurst - Pohangina

You are invited to join Manawatu artist Graham Christensen at the opening of his latest exhibition 'Rural Life' at The Coach House Museum, 121 South St, Feilding on Friday the 1st of December at 5.30pm.

Graham has lived the majority of his life on and around farms within the Manawatu/Rangitikei region and, now retired, lives on a farm near Ashhurst and paints from a large light-filled studio – fittingly, a converted room at the back of the barn.

In this exhibition Graham takes his lived experience and captures moments in time that many of us will recognise from our own memories of rural New Zealand.

Wine, non-alcoholic drinks and grazing platters will be provided. Entry to the Opening Celebration is free (museum entry fees will apply outside of this event).

The exhibition runs until the 28th of February 2024.

Tacking the bamboo-like pest in the Manawatū

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

🌱 A new national scheme led by Biosecurity New Zealand is tackling an invasive weed that’s threatening wetlands, waterways, and forests in and around Manawatū, reports the Manawatū Standard.

💬 Our question to you: Do we sometimes overlook plants when investing in conservation?
Have you spotted this weed in your area, or noticed other local efforts to protect our native flora?
