Beautify Manukau Project

Since our last newsletter, we've welcomed another amazing mural on the carpark wall between Woodside Bar and Restaurant and the Bottle-O at 639 Great South Road.  We partnered with the Beautification Trust again and the property owners Wiri Trust whom we would like to formally thank.  The artist, Rangi Matthews, invested a significant amount of thoughtful planning and energy into this masterpiece and we love it.   His design celebrates the diverse cultures of South Auckland and the landmarks unique to Manukau. Rangi, a family man who loves giving back to the Community, works for the Beautification Trust removing graffiti, creating stunning art pieces in his spare time. Rangi is keen to collaborate with local street artists, providing a platform for them to display their talent. To see more of Rangi’s (artist name 2ezy) fantastic work visit his Instagram page - https://www.instagram.com/2.ezy/

Our General Manager Audrey Williams recently attended the Wiri Trust Board meeting and was thrilled to receive a special thanks from the Wiri Trust for organising this mural, and an amazing framed picture from Rangi that is now sitting pride of place on our wall - we absolutely love it!
