Come see me tomorrow!

I'll be at the community centre from 9.30am until about 11, Sat 30 April. Bring along any images (drawings, paintings, photos, prints, etc) that you've made about Pt Chev so I can photograph them. I'm also interested in hearing any stories about the area, particularly from older residents, or stories that are something a bit more unusual (such as the one about the end of Pt Chev beach being used as a pet cemetery for local children's deceased goldfish!). Made a mistake about the market, but come see me anyway. I'll be there...

Zoe will be at the community centre next Saturday. Come visit!

Pt Chev Community Art Project: Saturday April 30th 9.30-11.00am, local artist, Zoë Nash, will be at the community centre ready to answer your questions and provide info on work in progress for the exciting art project replacing the mural on the wall next to Countdown. Still seeking volunteers, plus looking for any interesting stories you may have about Pt Chev. Feel free to bring along your own drawings, paintings, photographs, craft works, memorabilia — anything that has some kind of connection to the area (eg history, flora and fauna, sporting activities, culture, architecture). These can be photographed and may appear in the final project! Community centre market will be running at the same time. Hope to see you there.

Timeframe update

Due to unforeseen complications, the deadline for the project has been extended. There is still plenty of time to get involved yourself or pass on details to others you think may be interested. Get them to give me a buzz on 021 175 3713.
Now expect the artwork to be completed around mid-end July? Feedback forms from the community so far indicate a desire to see visual images that represent the green spaces, the blue water, the pohutukawa flowers, the wildlife, historic buildings, cultural iconography... we shall see what we can do...

Newsflash!

Met with lovely ladies of the Coyle Park Art Group yesterday, and then spent time with my niece in the park, itself, taking photos and making rubbed prints of various patterns such as tree rings and text on sculptures...
Keep morning of April 30th free. I will be at the community centre available to talk to people and give updates on the project and also discuss how YOU can get involved. There is still time...
