Go behind-the-scenes in Stuff's newsroom

Angela Quigan Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

Ever wondered why we cover the stories that we do? Or what our policy is on swear words on Stuff? What about why the homepage greets you with 'Kia ora, Aotearoa!' and not 'Hello, New Zealand!' ?

The Backstory is an occasional email newsletter giving you behind-the-scenes insight into stories and newsroom decisions, from Stuff Editor Patrick Crewdson. It's sent every one to two weeks and it's free!

Sign up here.

If there's an element of Stuff's operations you'd like the inside scoop on, email Patrick with suggestions here.

One day weekend art Workshop with Jacki in Tauriko Back Studio18th or 19th May2024 1-5pm

Jacki from Tauriko

Now that winter is here it’s a great time to pick up a paintbrush and explore your creative abilities. I invite you to come and paint with me in my inspirational studio.
Choose one day, SAT May 18th / SUNDAY May 19th 1pm -5pm. $185 all materials supplied including a wine and snacks. You just have to bring your own canvas.

In this 4 hour workshop we will be exploring abstraction. I will be showing you new methods and materials to create unique effects in your creative process. I will teach you how to take risks and get unstuck moving your art forward.
We will discuss what we like in art and how we respond to these attributes.
This class is suited for anyone, from painting dabblers to seasoned artists.
This is not a learn how to draw class, it is an exercise in expression and finding your own rthym and painting style.
Please feel free to share this amongst your friends and give me a call if you have any questions.
Call Jacki 021 0735661
I can’t wait to paint with you!
Regards Jacki
