Book your spot for the Waimarino Art Awards Workshops! Here are two of the many options...

🎨 Ecstatic Art — a playful, expressive art experience where you’ll move, listen, explore colour and create freely. Warmly open to children, parents, siblings, whānau! No art experience needed — just curiosity and a willingness to play. 20 spots remaining.

📍Rangataua Hall
📅 Monday 28 September, 2-5pm (school holidays)
🎟️ https://www.waimarinoartawards.org.nz/workshops/

🤎 Cacao Ceremony × Guided Art — a slower, more inward experience weaving together cacao, mindfulness, meditation and intuitive art-making. A space to pause, reconnect and express what’s within. 8 spots available!

Both experiences are an invitation to slow down, regulate, connect and remember your own creative voice.

✨ No need to be an artist.
✨ Come as you are.
✨ Spaces are limited — book your place.

We are so lucky! These vases survived the earthquake this morning, while balancing on 3 pinpoints each in our kiln! All pottery on the studio shelves are fine, and in our shop the only things that fell were not breakable!
Feeling very thankful everyone is safe too 🙏🥰
