THE EXHIBITION

Over 70 artists from across New Zealand are set to exhibit their work at the inaugural Art Exhibition at Hereworth School.

Whether it's painting or sculpture – grand in scale or delicately detailed – there is something to suit every artistic taste. Wander through the exhibition, take in the vibrant colours, and be inspired by the creativity on display.

The exhibition will officially open on Friday evening with a ticketed event, An Evening of Art and will continue throughout the weekend. Please refer to the opening hours for full details.

In addition to the artwork, there will be raffles and a curated selection of merchandise available for purchase – perfect for those who may not be looking to buy art but still wish to take home something special.
