August issue read online

Welcome to our Art Issue, celebrating the artists, makers, and creatives shaping the cultural heartbeat of our region. From a Matakana-raised director whose debut film premiered at Sundance, to a Waipū illustrator who contributed to an Ed Sheeran music video, this issue highlights the stories behind the work.

Discover Bowhunter, a documentary about what happened when Kaipara Hills farmer, Sarah Thoroughgood, refused to accept limits, and meet Mark McLeod whose career in sound spans decades, continents, and some genuinely unforgettable moments.

Join us as we celebrate the talent that brings this community to life – and be sure to pullout our Art Trail and Makers Directory in the centre of this issue.
