Got a creative idea you keep coming back to?
It doesn’t need a polished plan, a confirmed venue or a perfectly balanced budget yet. If there’s something you’d love to create with the Henderson-Massey community, Creative Henderson-Massey would like to hear about it!

You might be imagining a performance, exhibition, workshop, film, publication, music project, community event or something we haven’t thought of yet.

Funding applications for the 2026 round are now open, and first-time applicants are very welcome.
Projects must take place between October 2026 and June 2027.
Applications close Friday 4 September at 5pm.

Apply via the Creative Henderson-Massey website:
https://creativehendersonmassey.org.nz/

Funded by the Henderson-Massey Local Board

Winter is definitely upon us! One bonus of cold and wet weather is that it can be a great opportunity to start the spring cleaning and decluttering ahead of spring.

Do you have something that's broken or in need of a little TLC to be useable again? If so, why not bring it along to our next Repair Cafe next Friday (7 August) - they'd love to help!
The awesome team of volunteers are ready and willing to help with:
💻 electronic repairs (laptops, phones, etc - please bring your own charger and any components required)
🔌small electrical appliances (lamps, kitchen appliances, anything that has a flex and a plug ) - please no microwave ovens or 4-slice toasters as these can't be fixed.
🪑 small furniture items needing repair (no bigger than you can carry)
🧸toys
🧵sewing repairs - darning, button repairs, etc (please ensure items are clean, pockets empty, and bring any components you need with you, eg zips. If unpicking needs to be done, it would be appreciated if you could do this prior to arrival as well)
🚴‍♂️Bike servicing
🔧General diy/household repairs
You'll find DEANZ Repair Café - Te Atatu South at Te Atatu South Community Centre (behind St John Ambulance) on Friday 7 August from 5pm - 8pm (last items accepted at 7:30pm to enable them to close on time).

This is a free event, however koha gratefully received to assist with the cost of running these events.
