Open for Term 2

Happy Autumn to all.

Kapiti Women’s Centre is open for Term 2, why not visit us for a cuppa and a chat? Courses are filling up very fast – please drop in soon if you want to grab a spot. Just a reminder that ‘GO PARENT’ our wonderful 9 week parenting course starts THIS FRIDAY (9 May) and there are still places available. It is only $15 for the whole course. Call us on 902 6222 for all the details.

Second Oil Painting Class added

Our Friday oil painting class filled up so fast, that we are squeezing in another one on Wednesdays! This class will cover the same material, but will instead be run as 3 long classes (instead of the 6 short classes). As it’s a last minute squeeze into the timetable, it will be run fortnightly instead of weekly.

Details: Oil Painting for Beginners: “Using water-based oils (virtually no odour), we will produce several small works including a small landscape and floral image. A chance to make this versatile medium your friend!”

3 x Wednesdays 9.30am-1pm

Fortnightly, on May 28th, June 11th, and June 25th 2014.

$30 including all materials.

I hope this pleases those who’ve missed out, or those who have been asking for an art class on a different day of the week for a change!! :) Phone 902 6222 to register your interest!

 

 

 

Government House Reception

The Kapiti Women’s Centre were delighted to received an invitation to a reception at Government House to celebrate 120 years of women’s suffrage in New Zealand.  In the usual collective way, volunteers to attend this event were sought from the collective.  Becky, Louise, Jan Crafts and Rae were delighted to represent the collective.  A highlight of the evening was a tour of the house, a concert by a young women jazz singer from the University and an opportunity to meet other people from around New Zealand.
