IMPORTANT FAQs - PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING

If I am the Activities Coordinator can I participate?

Yes! We think this is a lovely activity to do alongside your residents. However, Connect the Dots staff are only able to provide art making support, so please be sure to continue putting your residents needs first (we know how easy it is to get engrossed in the art making!). You will need to assist them with bathrooms and refreshments and encouragement!

How long is the workshop?

Each workshop is an hour and a half, with morning tea to start.

Is morning tea included?

Yes. Morning tea of a hot drink and home baking will be provided for a $3 per person. Please bring cash on the day, or if you are booking as a group we can invoice you following the workshop.

What if I need to cancel?

We appreciate that things can come up that mean you are no longer able to make it. We would appreciate as much notice as possible so that we can offer this opportunity to someone else. If you book more than 6 tickets you will be considered a group and will be expected to give 48 hours notice.

Dogs?

Yes! Connect the Dots' Make Moments programme comes with two foxies. They are very friendly.

Why is it free?

Through the generous support of Creative Communities Scheme, Auckland Council and Hugo Charitable Trust.
