It’s that time of the year again when we’re planning for the summer season over here on Waiheke, kicking off with a special double page map of the island in the Waiheke Weekender featuring artists studios and galleries along with the vineyards, olive groves and other activities.

Waiheke is becoming known now as an Island of Art.  The 2020 Art Map is soon underway ready later in the year with an exhibition up at the Waiheke Community Art Gallery.

The studio & gallery up at Trig Hill Base Camp will be open 11 – 4, Sunday – Tuesday, from Labour Weekend however feel free to ring on 021 887819 to arrange a visit outside of those hours.

Summer on the Island! –  ‘Artlounge Long Afternoons’: enjoy a relaxed visit to the studio followed by music, sundowners and stargazing into the evening. Dates TBC

Summer in the City! –  A selection of works will be travelling to Auckland for display so watch this space for more images and details.
