Why Visit?

"The intimate atmosphere of being in an artist's working place can give you a special appreciation for their creativity, and the processes involved in their art-making."
 

Whanganui is a compact city and you will enjoy meandering around the studios of your choice and see as few or as many as you like; there'll be at least sixty to choose from.   

The whole town enters into the spirit of the art-filled weekend's. The many up-beat galleries and cafes will have art on show and provide a warm Whanganui welcome.  This year we have one artist exhibiting in the Whanganui Observatory. 

Grab a guide that provides information on every studio, participating cafes and galleries.  The staff at the  i-site Wanganui visitor information center will also be happy to help point you in  the  right direction!
