NZ ART SHOW: CONNECTING ART AND ART LOVERS
Although we’ve just concluded this year’s show, our team is already hard at work planning for the 2024 event. Our unwavering dedication ensures that next year’s show will be yet another captivating and inspiring experience.
To eliminate any potential ambiguity, please note that the NZ Art Show is the sole art exhibition we organize. We take great pride in channeling all our energy and creativity into this singular show, allowing us to excel in delivering the utmost quality and excellence in the realm of art exhibitions.
Therefore, we encourage you to mark your calendars and reserve King’s Birthday Weekend for the highly anticipated NZ Art Show Weekend.
2024 will be our 21st anniversary, so let’s reflect on the last twenty years of supporting Aotearoa art and artists
For the past two decades, the NZ Art Show has been a steadfast supporter of Aotearoa art and artists, fostering a thriving and tightly-knit creative community of artists and art-lovers. As attested by numerous artists, the NZ Art Show continues to provide an array of invaluable benefits including:
- Launchpad for careers and creative confidence
- Cultivator of a vibrant art community
- Premier platform for emerging artists
- Provider of financial stability
- Source of creative stimulation and growth
- Cultivator of meaningful relationships
- And much more
We’re honoured to have so many inspiring artists in the NZ Art Show whānau
‘The NZ Art Show is a sophisticated event run by a tight-knit team of approachable professionals. As an emerging artist, the show has provided a welcoming platform for me to amplify my work to a nationwide audience. From start to finish the correspondence between artist and host is clear, fair, and welcomes feedback; it’s a shared curated experience.’
Lizzie Pannell, artist, Wellington.

THE NZ ART SHOW: A LIFE-LONG LOVE AFFAIR
Art brings us so much joy, which is why we love it so much, and the NZ Art Show connects the artists, art and art-lovers in a dynamic experience unequalled anywhere in Aotearoa.
One art purchase can lead to a life-time of collecting: many of our attendees have been with us since the beginning – attending and buying and building up their collections. We’re delighted to have contributed to the collections of so many people who have enjoyed this journey with us.
