Hannah from Central Whangarei

Kia Ora Pottery Folks of Whangarei

Entries for the Open Ceramics Awards are due in 8 days time!
We are excited to announce that our Judge for 2020 is none other than Greg Barron, esteemed Northland artist. We are happy that Greg agreed to be on board this year, and being local to Whangarei means the event can go ahead despite Covid-19 travel restrictions if we have them at that time.

There are two categories of “Best Open Masters” and “Best Emerging” (first time entering a National Show). Applications go through an initial selection round with photographic images only. Selected participants will be notified by 5 October, with an invitation to deliver the physical works for the competition by 23rd October. Judging will happen on 5th November, with the official announcements and opening 5.30pm Friday 6th November.

Get your entry into the Open Ceramics Award 2020! Find out more and see the terms and conditions on our website - quarryarts.org...

Say goodbye to tyre waste

Tyrewise

About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.

The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.

Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
