Opening May 20: Peace on Earth

The Feilding & District Art Society

Feilding Art Centre has undergone a transformation. From tomorrow, when you pass through the doors of 104 Manchester Street, you’ll find yourself immersed in images of the natural and spiritual world, all representing Michael Angelo’s vision for Peace on Earth.

We’ve decided to share some sneak peaks of today’s install, but nothing will prepare you for the world Michael has created. Fish swim up toward the ceiling, native trees grow out from the floor, and colourful birds appear to fly across the walls.

Peace on Earth is an experiential exhibition featuring artwork inspired by New Zealand’s natural environment as well as icons from Michael’s own imagination. Visit Feilding Art Centre between May 20 to June 16.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

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!
