Taupō Art Connection is hosting its ninth annual Queen's Birthday Art Trail featuring 24 local artists from around the Taupō area.
Taupō Art Connection is an all-inclusive, art-connected group formed to bring independent Taupō visual artists together. This community group, run by volunteers, ranges from professional to enthusiastic hobbyists, frompainters to sculptors.
The Queen's Birthday Art Trail provides an opportunity to network, share and encourage each other creatively and the event has become a very popular event on Queen's Birthday Weekend.
The arts community in Taupō is incredibly strong and there would be more visual artists per capita than in many other places in New Zealand, as is commented on by visitors, many of whom return year after year.
The art trail offers an unparalleled opportunity to see the extraordinary range of creative practices across the region. Meet more than 24 visual artists at their studios and various venues and view a diverse range of artworks including painting, sculpture, ceramics, wood turning, and carving.
