Open Studios Waitākere at Matuku Link!📅 Saturday 23rd and Sunday 24th November | 10am – 4pm
Join us at Auckland’s largest mainland wetland for a weekend of art and nature! We’re excited to host several local artists for Waitākere Open Studios this year, right here at Matuku Link.
The longest mural in Te Henga, depicting the migration story of the eel, painted by Derek March will be the backdrop for two days of the artistic take-over of Matuku Link’s Sustainable Wetland Education Centre. You’ll have the chance to see works by Derek March, Lucia Abena, Mary Ann Manchego, Rachel Bebbington, Ngaio Matariki Osborne Mace, Larraine Williams, Serena Stevenson, Jessie Gabriel, Simon McIntyre, Celia Steenhuisen as Frida Lobo, Jaqx, and Summer Knight. The artists will take turns being on-site to chat and answer questions, with most pieces available for purchase, offering options to suit all budgets.
In addition to exploring the art, there will be a painting demonstration on Saturday with Celia Steenhuisen, and Brandy Davis will be screenprinting her new Matuku Link t-shirt design on Sunday. Bring dark coloured t-shirts to be screenprinted!
Make the most of your visit with guided wetland tours at 11am and 1pm each day. Hot drinks, toilets, eftpos, and an accessible path will be available.
We look forward to seeing you there!
