From the shimmering coastline of Mercury Bay to bustling markets in Whitianga and Coroglen, Sunflower Glass Studio NZ has been steadily evolving into an example of creativity, fun and happy memories, and New Zealand pride.
At 239 South Highway, Whitianga, it’s a hive of activity each day as the Wāhi Tukurua team and volunteers are busy rescuing good, usable items from heading to landfill and giving them a fresh start in the community.
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.
Meet Leah Creaven. “I am a textile artist, and I make rug-tufted artwork that weaves together stories of land, connection and belonging.”
