A huge range of artists across many different venues
|
We regret to advise that ARTS in the VILLE 2021 will not be going ahead.
We have waited as long as practicably possible before making this decision but with all the restrictions still in place and not looking particularly positive for the next 2 weeks, we have decided to cancel this year's event. We will now work towards a strong ARTS in the VILLE 2022 and look forward to seeing you then! ARTS in the VILLE is an annual festival and art trail that celebrates the many local artists in the area — it will be the seventh year in a row this event has been held!
Come and take advantage of this great opportunity to view, discuss and purchase art pieces from a huge range of artists across many different venues. These include open studios, venues and other pop-up spaces which will be marked clearly, and can be found on the map provided from this website as a download, or on site in Helensville during the festival weekend. From 10 – 4pm each day (Saturday & Sunday), Helensville will be buzzing with visitors taking advantage of the vibrant display of art. Join in and you’ll experience a variety of media from sculpture, embroidery, painting, pottery, ceramic, etchings, glasswork, millinery, repurposed mixed media and engineered creations, for both your indoor and outdoor spaces. In many cases you will have the opportunity to meet the artist in their studio, discuss pieces with them, and sometimes see them at work. Most pieces will be for sale (see FAQs page for more info). Last year the Visual Treasure Hunt was a highlight of the long weekend, with a stunning prize donated by well-respected, New Zealand sculptor Jeff Thomson, whose studio is located in the heart of Helensville. ARTS in the VILLE should not be missed! We are working hard to make this event a bright light in your calendar. Come for the day, or the weekend, and enjoy the art, local cafes, non-stop musical entertainment and other local attractions. |
