Mercury Bay Art Escape
25 February 2011
- 06 March 2011
The Mercury Bay Art Escape is a self drive tour of Artists Studios and Galleries in the beautiful Mercury Bay area of the Coromandel Peninsula. In 2011 it will be held over two long 3 day weekends beginning 25 February and ending 6 March.
Visitors will tour studios and galleries extremely diverse in character along one of New Zealand's most beautiful coastal regions, have the opportunity to meet and chat with the artists, and if desired, purchase art directly from the source.
This event showcases a diverse group of more than 30 open studios, 7 galleries and various musical/ culinary events. Represented are painters, sculptors, jewellers, printmakers and ceramicists in what is undoubtedly the most eclectic mix of studio artists in New Zealand. Never before has such a large and diverse group of talented artist from the Coromandel Peninsula been presented to the public.
The first day of the tour culminates in an Opening Reception and the unique Taste of the Tour exhibition at Hot Waves Cafe in Hot Water Beach beginning at 5:30 pm. We will soon be posting exciting details of the 2011 Art Escape in the What's On section of this web site so stay tuned.
