If you visited Michael Parekowhai's show last month on a weekday, more than likely you shared the experience with a class load of children. We had almost a thousand kids from ten Christchurch schools come and see the exhibition and listen to the piano being played.
Homeprinting in Feilding
On a recent trip to the Manawatu I took time out to visit John and Allison Brebner who run an amazing print studio called Homeprint tucked away in a suburban street in Feilding.
