Would you like to help to support Art in the Waimarino? 

 

We are calling for existing and new sponsors to assist us in taking regional Arts and Community Culture development and promotion to the next level.  We have new and proposed exciting categories and just need you to get behind us to regenerate creative economies in New Zealand.  In 2020, we have a contingency Coronavirus plan—if we can't hold the events locally that we describe, we'll do it all online. 

​

Partner with us and we'll share our new abundance in community.
