Whangarei Heads Arts Trail

Sheila from Parua Bay / Whangarei Heads

Such a shame that last year we had to cancel. Here's hoping this year makes up for it!!
Whangarei Heads Arts Trail draws buyers and exhibitors from across the region for the staging of one of Northlands most diverse arts events. Exhibitors in 2021 include painters, potters, glass workers, jewellers, photographers, printers, flax weavers, metal workers, woodworkers, sculptors, stone carvers, mosaic makers and textile artists. This year the event boasts 10 new exhibitors and sees the return of lots of popular favourites. With contributors ranging from happy amateurs to nationally known artists there is definitely something for everyone's taste and everyone's pocket. The work will be exhibited in locations spread along 35k of beautiful Whangarei Heads coastline. Maps will be available free on line so please check out our web site and facebook page. It is an amazing opportunity to see a truly impressive collection of work embracing a diverse and exciting range of media and it's all packed into one easily accessible route with great food and amazing scenery making it a perfect day out.
