Kapiti Arts and Crafts Society Shop, workrooms and Kapiti Gallery closure

In the interests of our members and the general public, Kāpiti Gallery and our workrooms at 192 Matai Road will also be closed in the meantime, and we have decided to close our arts and crafts shop at 20 Raumati Road for at least the next 4 weeks.

As soon as we’re “open for business” again, we’ll let you know!

Many of our shop’s volunteer minders are seniors, and with other society members compromised health-wise, we do not have the numbers to keep the shop open just now. (We thank all who have worked in the past week and all have said they were happy with the precautions we put in place.

We wish our valued Shop customers and Gallery visitors good health and hope you remain in good spirits.

Keep in touch with us and each other via Facebook – share photos and updates of your art and craft projects https://www.facebook.com/kapitiartsandcrafts

UPDATE: We are closed until the government advises Level 4 restrictions are lifted
