Join us on Saturday in Sandringham Reserve to make a Flower Carpet
Come along to Sandringham Reserve (corner of Sandringham and Lambeth Roads) to help make Auckland's first flower carpet this Saturday February 13th from 10:30am!
Did you grow any marigolds over the summer? If so, bring your flowers and everyone can lay their flowers down to help create the rangoli inspired community flower carpet, joining those grown by other members of the community. Together the community will make a flower carpet!
At the event we will gather feedback on how you would like to see Sandringham as a whole developed in the future, to go into our Sandringham Vision Plan. Come to the tent and give feedback on Saturday and we'll have free samosas to say thanks.
Sandringham Reserve will be closed from April-June as the new playground and reserve redevelopment is built. Posters of what’s planned will be on show during the marigold event. It is a great chance for us to enjoy the reserve together before it is redeveloped!
We're looking forward to seeing you there!

Thanks for the feedback. Together we've chosen Katy Wallace's vision
Thank you everyone (100 responses!) for helping us choose which artist will guide the redesign of Sandringham Reserve. Together we chose Katy Wallace and her vision "Neighbourhood Picnic".
Katy's artist statement and images are below, and we'll have more information as the design is developed further.
Also, congratulations Sophie, winner of the $100 voucher to Paradise Restaurant.
Artist Statement: Designed as an interpretive space, use it how you like - ride your trike around the circular track, play ball on the rubber circle mat, have your takeaways lounging on the warm deck, send the kids off to set up a fort and swing from the trees on the playground. This is a design created from the identity of its place, food - culture and community make it what it is. It will be a welcome oasis for locals and visitors alike.
