Join us at Zealandia these school holidays for a free, nature inspired craft event!

Local artist Tayla Hartemink has designed a series of unique stamps featuring beautiful native manu and ika, perfect for decorating cards, and printing fabric and clothing. A limited amount of materials will be provided, but we encourage you to bring your own T-shirts, tote bags, tea towels, or other fabric items to personalise with these stunning designs.
