SUMMARY:Life Drawing Sessions
DESCRIPTION:Come along to our Life Drawing bi monthly Life Drawing Session\nLife Drawing Session Friday (first and third Friday of the month) \nWhere: 171a Elizabeth Street West\, Tauranga\nKoha: $10.00 for Society Members\, $15.00 for Guests \nLife Drawing\, Figure Drawing… the act of drawing a living person.\nIt’s one of the most challenging and interesting ways to develop your drawing skills. Skills that translate to all aspects of art making.\nIt’s also a great way to escape into your own world for a little while.\nThis is an untutored session\, however\, we won’t leave you completely alone if you are new to it and need a little help getting started. It is a very friendly\, mixed level\, session and you will be surprised what you can learn and achieve with a little encouragement.\nIf you are an experienced artist or student a Life Model will give you unlimited inspiration and a chance to experiment with your technique\, materials and style. And we all appreciate and are inspired by new approaches.\nWe always take time for a feedback session before we leave. This is a positive and invaluable part of the session. It is inspiring looking at what worked during the session and why; sometimes the less obvious “works” provide the most interesting insights. There is always something to learn.\nBring your own drawing/painting gear (any media is fine)\, there is usually sugar paper available for sale at the Art Room. We do have some easels at the rooms\, but they are limited. If you have your own please feel free to bring it along.\nPlease turn up in time to assist with set up\, and stay on to assist with pack down. We are a self supporting group and if everyone helps it is very quick and easy. \nPS:  If you are interested in modelling and are available please feel free to PM me. We love experienced Models\, but are happy to use a sprinkling of “new” models… so don’t be reluctant if you haven’t done it before.

SUMMARY:Death Café\, Omokoroa
DESCRIPTION:The Death Café is simply a place for conversations about death and dying.\nThese are questions you may have.\n• How do I talk to my children/friends about dying and death ?\n• What is a living funeral ?\n• Are you scared of dying ?\nThe Death Café is an open\, unstructured\, and respectful space free of judgement where we can express our views safely\, over a cuppa\, with warm-hearted people to share stories\, resources\, insights and experiences. The atmosphere is comfortable and relaxing enabling you to share whatever it is or just to sit and be present.\nWe would like to increase awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their (finite) lives. There is no agenda\, objectives or themes; it is a discussion group. Come and join us.\nVisit: www.deathcafe.com for further info. \nWhere: Omokoroa Boat Club\, The Esplanade\nTime: 9.30am -11.00am (9.15am to order coffee and a muffin)\nDate: Usually the 3rd Saturday of the month.\nContact: Carol  021 878 730

SUMMARY:Waste Free Parenting with Kate Meads - ON LINE
DESCRIPTION:Did you know… That each baby goes through approximately 5500 nappy changes throughout their childhood? That’s a lot of single-use items being thrown out across New Zealand! \nLeave your kids on a nicer planet\, its as easy as “Doing 1 Thing”. Take this online course and be inspired\, entertained\, and educated. Kate will give you lots of laughs and encouragement and may challenge your thinking when it comes to what you need when you become new parents. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe question is… Why do we have a waste issue?  Can we continue to think it is not our problem? Or will you take the challenge and change one small thing to make a difference?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn order to turn back the clock\, even just a fraction\, we need to do something… but what is it and where do we start?  We start with doing ONE thing!\n\nBecome part of the solution\, and learn about awesome tools such as cloth nappies and much more!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Kate does not preach she inspires. I learned so much and she made me realize there is no need to be perfect we just need to all do something”\nThis course is designed for you to complete at your own pace. You can sit down and work your way through the modules all at once\, or you can do it bit by bit when you have the energy – it’s your call! \nThe topics for this course include: \n\nIntro/What’s the problem?\nLandfill\nRecycling\nWaste Water\nProducts: Feeding & Baby Food\nProducts: Cloth Nappies 101\nWashing Cloth Nappies\nProducts: Extra for experts\n\nThe coolest bit? Not only do you get the most up-to-date and effective waste minimisation education out there\, but you are also sent out a goodie bag full of waste minimisation products (Including a couple cloth nappies) worth $100 so that you can take your brand new knowledge and inspiration and put it into action! \nTicket price: $27. Select how many tickets you’d like (1 x Cloth Nappy Trial pack worth $100 with each ticket!)\, pay through our secure system\, and you’ll be emailed the instructions to view right away!
