NorthTec arts students are auctioning their works to help fund an exchange programme to Whangarei's sister city in China.
The students have been selected from all areas of the NorthTec arts programme - Digital Arts, Visual Arts and Māori Arts (Maunga Kura Toi) - and they will travel with an arts tutor.
They will study a special programme designed for them, alongside local students in the art school at the Haikou College of Economics and Vocational Technology.
