HOWICK ART GROUP ART FESTIVAL
Sat 19 & Sun 20 November 10am-3pm and Sat 26 & Sun 27 November 10am-3pm
Hawthornden Reserve, 66 Cook Street, Howick

Our last year’s Art Festival was such a success that we decided to make this an annual event.  This year’s Art Festival will be held on the weekends of 19 & 20 November and 26 & 27 November, 10am-3pm.
A tent will be erected on the lawn of Hawthornden Reserve close to the street and one outside the Green Gables Cottage Gallery regardless of the weather.
Be there for a 9.30am set up, bring your own easels and a heavy rice or sand bag to secure them to the ground.  You need your own labels, include 20% commission and all artwork must be original.  No prints and no copies.  It would be great if you can do a duty.

Bruce McLaren Retirement Village Art Showcase
Sat 12 & Sun 13 March 2016  10am-4pm

The Art Showcase at Bruce McLaren as stated below was a great show and thoroughly enjoyed by all who came.  It is hopefully the first of many to be held there.  In fine surroundings, and with a relaxed atmosphere, both public and residents wandered through the exhibition taking in the many different and varied styles, mediums and subjects of painted works. With a very comfortable nearby lounge available for a cup of tea or coffee and a slice of cake, many came back again for a second look and finally went home with a treasured work of art.
