When its over will someone be able to add up all the costs and deduct any " Gold coin Donnations" Devide the differance by the number of rate payers who contribute to the gallery cost and tell me what it cost Me to help make this event happen Because I an alot of other rate payers would like to know Where our money is being spent.....Is that an unrealistic request??? And lets include the lunches any accomadation ,gifts etc etc

Art like everything must NOT be paid for if we dont want to . Tell me how this painting will improve the lives of the majority of Tauranga people Drones dont ask questions they just do what they are told to do and what to think But My question is not the value of art But its cost....Will someone be able to tell us how much this exhibition has cost when its all over , People keep saying Im againts the "arts " Not Im not just the cost of such "Fantasic and evocative artworks with wide appeal ...HOW BLOODY MUCH WILL IT COST ??????
