Botanically, an exhibition that is 100% plant based, well the theme anyway!
Bringing together a selection of work from the Tutere artists you can expect everything from crocheted house plants, yes you heard that correctly, to painting, to Lino cuts and photography.
Not necessarily green but very green influenced!
Running over the Easter break and the weekend prior.
10:00 am to 4:00 pm

With a love of bright colours, upcycling, spirituality and meditation, travel and cultures, and all things sparkly, her work is always a feast for the eyes and the soul and is guaranteed to bring a smile to your dial!

Main Gallery Space Rental
Looking to get your work out there and searching for a dedicated gallery space in Kāpiti that can do it? Then look no further. Also a perfect space for a combined group show. With high foot traffic and summer here, you will be guaranteed an audience. The space is available now for bookings from a one week minimum to a maximum of four. Very reasonable rates of $100 per week (that is a Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday period) which equates to $25 a day! And a low commission of 25% on works sold, why wouldn't you commit to that! Curatorial assistance is available if you require. It is an expectation that artists will manage the space themselves but coverage can be arranged at an extra cost.

The 100 Day Journey
The 100 Day Journey is a program targeted specifically for creatives, those seeking MORE for themselves both professionally and personally. The 100 day project phenomenon has been popping up around the globe for years. The premise 'do something creative every day for 100 days' is something an individual can tackle solely at any time but one of the major issues artists struggle with is working in isolation and even the most disciplined artist can struggle to stay on track when they are only accountable to themselves. The 100 Day Journey is a program offered by Kāpiti Coast based, Tutere Collaborative, and has been refined and developed over the past seven years.
We are taking expressions of interest now for the Kāpiti/Wellington intake.

Creative Mixers
It's pretty hard staying connected these days, yes there is the ability to do that online but nothing beats actually sitting down with a fellow creative and having a good old chat and seeing the actual work physically. And what if you are interested in collaborative opportunities and meeting others with differing disciplines. Here in Kapiti we also face challenges due to the nature of our towns being spread out and no central physical connection point. So we thought let's do something about that....
Introducing 'Creative Mixers'! An opportunity for the creatives in our district to come together and connect.
Our next get together will be Saturday 17 February 2024 between 10:00 am and 2:00 pm.
Would be awesome to see you at one of these upcoming mixers!
