  • Karioi Quilts & Crafts

    Category: Art Group/ Drop In Session Karioi Quilts & Crafts


    February 8, 2024

    Karioi Quilts & Crafts - second Thursday of every month.

    The Karioi Quilters have been making high quality, natural fibre, artistic quilts for many years. Primarily a patchwork and quilting group, the members meet to share knowledge and skills and enjoy creating in good company.

    From 2023, we changed the name to Karioi Quilts and Crafts to open the group up to other crafters. 

    Members can work on their own projects ranging from quilts, sewing projects and you can even bring your knitting, as long as it’s not a messy craft anything goes.  New members are always welcome to come along to work on their own projects and learn techniques from a group of very creative craftspeople.

    Group co-ordinator is Sue Webber 021 489944  

    Meetings are held at the Raglan Old School Arts Centre from 10am to 1pm (sometimes 3pm if the room is available) on the second Thursday of every month. 10 sessions per year from February to December. Subscription is $30 per year which goes towards room hire.

  • Film Festival Workshop

    Category: Workshops Film Festival Workshop


    February 10, 2024

    Note: This is a two-part workshop. Come along for either the morning or afternoon workshop or both.

    Matt Hicks is a Waikato-based writer/producer/director/actor best known as the Producer of Waikato indie feature ‘Home Kills’ (which premiered at the 2023 NZIFF) and the forthcoming indie feature ‘The Tavern’ (in post-production). Matt's workshop details the highs and lows he’s experienced making low-budget features in an honest, warts-and-all fashion. In the workshop we will cover pre-production (writing/pitching to cast/crew/investors), production and post production. Participants will be encouraged to pitch their film ideas which we will workshop into pitch-ready concepts.
