Calling ALL Artists...
Membership applications have now opened for the Kerikeri Open Art Studios Trail 2021 to be held during Labour Weekend, 23 - 25 October.
KOAST would love to hear from you if you live, work or exhibit in Kerikeri or surrounds and you'd like to join. Have a look on the website koast.org.nz... where you can complete the form online koast.org.nz.../koast-application-form/.
And of course if you're an art appreciator rather than an artist, just pop the dates in your diary!
The Trail had around 3000 visitors during 2019 - the sixth Trail - one of the most successful years to date so they're looking forward to another great Trail this year. KOAST has lots of publicity planned to encourage even more Trail Goers from out of town, so come and join us.
