Proud to be Local — brought to you by CFM — is our inspirational feature, highlighting home-grown Coromandel Peninsula folks doing wonderful things out in the world.
Thames Arts, Treasures and Textiles (TATAT) is a group of local artists who have come together to exhibit and sell their unique creations.
Starting on 19 October, the exhibition will be open for sales every Saturday morning, 9 am – 1 pm, in the Grahamstown Hall, in conjunction with the Saturday Thames Market.
I paint because it brings me happiness, fulfilment and allows me to share the messages I have for the world in the most authentic way possible. Also, because I don’t know how not to. When I haven’t painted for a while I feel like there’s a big storm cloud brewing behind me full of ideas, adding up and threatening to push me over.
Occasionally, we all feel unwell. Periodically, we might have a headache, catch a cold, or burn a fever. Sometimes, we break some bones, suffer more severe internal issues or are diagnosed with some devastating illness. When this happens, most of us will seek out a general practitioner, a specialist or a surgeon and, subsequently, receive some medication to help us recover.
In Part 1 of this story, I suggested that people and political parties sit down and share kai together, speak and listen to each other and reach compromises through sharing ideas and understanding – and not use historical agreements to sow discord and division, as the Act Party’s Treaty Referendum Bill is doing.
