Mangawhai’s many artists will be opening their doors and displaying their talents throughout the Easter weekend during the annual Mangawhai Art Trail.
The work of 48 artists will be on display at 18 separate venues, from cafes and churches to artists’ own studios and the Mangawhai Artists Gallery in Moir Street. Paintings, prints, drawings, pottery and sculpture in a diverse range of media and styles will be exhibited and available for sale.
A map and guide to participating artists and venues is available online, or an illustrated booklet and map can be bought for a gold coin from shops and businesses in Mangawhai Village and Mangawhai Heads, and at the Saturday morning market in Moir Street.
Mangawhai artist Lynn Middleton says the chance to go behind the scenes and see how and where artists produce their work is always popular.
“When artists open their studios, they are always intriguing and revealing,” she says. “They will be on hand to talk about their art and answer questions.”
The Mangawhai Art Trail will be open from 10am to 4pm on Saturday, March 31 and Easter Sunday, April 1.
