VENUE: The Crossing Airbridge, Level 1 at The Crossing, Christchurch
Saving youth artwork from the skip and framing it for a brighter future, Artstart is an exhibition of Te Waipounamu's future creatives, giving them the audience, funds and confidence to kickstart a career in the arts. These young creatives artworks will be exhibited for two weeks alongside works from local guest artists.
Everyone is welcome - from serious collectors to art lovers and people who get a buzz from supporting local. This event will get you feeling good about the future of Te Waipounamu art.
All artworks are available for sale. All remunerating the Artists. So let's support local, Te Waipounamu.
