Organisers of martakana believe they have sourced some fresh and exciting art talent for the 2018 exhibition in January.

The three-day art sale will feature some local favourites as well as artists from further afield whose work has never been shown at this exhibition.

Now in its twelfth year, martakana is held in the Matakana School Hall and raises funds for Warkworth Wellsford Hospice. The exhibition opens at 10am on Friday, January 19 and there will be a wine and cheese opening at 6pm that evening.

Guests will be treated to wine and food featuring speciality cheeses donated by Puhoi Valley, with opportunities to buy special artworks at auction. Entry is by donation.

The show will continue from 9am on Saturday, January 20, until 4pm on Sunday, with free entry.

Martakana is sponsored by Mike Pero Real Estate.
