The Raglan iHub, a central hub for community information and a gateway to the Raglan & District Museum, has recently undergone a significant transformation. Thanks to the efforts of dedicated volunteers Angela Williams, Lisa Thomson, Shirley Pearson, and Lois Brooks, the iHub has been given a fresh look. In just a single day, they revamped the space, creating an inviting atmosphere to better highlight the works of local artisans.
The newly redesigned space features improved displays that make the wide range of locally made arts and crafts more visible and appealing to visitors. The changes are intended to not only refresh the space but also to offer a better experience for those seeking unique, locally produced gifts and artwork. With Christmas just around the corner, the iHub is highlighting the fact that it is a prime destination for holiday shopping. There is a gorgeous array of handcrafted products from local artisans, providing a range of options to help alleviate the stress of gift-giving.
New fittings were purchased from Trade Aid to help with the redesign, enhancing both the look and functionality of the retail area. The team at the iHub has worked hard to ensure the space is both attractive and practical, making it easier for visitors to browse the selection of local products.
Angela says: “Customers and community say they are loving the new layout. Feels more spacious and so much easier to move around and see the creations available.”
For local artisans, the iHub provides a valuable platform to display and sell their creations. If you are a local artisan and interested in selling your products at the iHub, you are encouraged to visit the space and learn more about the opportunities available. The iHub is open seven days a week, from 10am to 3pm.
As the holiday season approaches, the iHub invites everyone to stop by and explore the newly revamped space. Whether you are looking for a unique gift, interested in local history, or just want to support the local arts scene, the iHub offers something for everyone.
With the transformation complete, the iHub is now ready to serve the community in new and exciting ways, making it a must-visit destination in Raglan.
