Every two years, artists from around the world gather in Whangarei, New Zealand, to share skills, learn from each other, and create unique collaborative works of art. Set in a beautiful beachfront location beneath Mt Manaia, the event brings together international and Kiwi artists working in a range of mediums - including metal, wood, furniture, glass, jewellery, ceramics, fibre, weaving, eco-dyeing, painting, and printmaking.It’s a time for artistic growth, creative exchange, experimentation, and connection. The result is a vibrant celebration of art and innovation, inspired by one of New Zealand’s most stunning natural settings.
