Local artists gear up for Kāpiti Arts Trail

Local artists gear up for Kāpiti Arts Trail

 

Ōtaki and district artists are gearing up for the two weekends of the Kāpiti Arts Trail in November.

The trail is on from 10am-4pm on the weekends of November 6-7 and 13-14. While many artists are inviting guests into their studios to talk about and show off their art, there are also several multi-artist venues around Ōtaki where demonstrations will be integral parts of the event.

At the Old Courthouse in Centennial Park on the main highway, for example, the exhibition Ōtaki Our Place by various local artists continues, featuring mainly paintings of Ōtaki. Ironmonger Warren Baillie will be demonstrating the use of vintage woodworking tools, including a shave horse, froe, side axe and drawknife,  from 1-3pm on the first weekend, November 6 and 7.

Down the road at Artel Gallery & Store, Maude Heath has a huge range of art for sale, and she is joined in-store by acclaimed landscape painter Bee Doughty-Pratt.

At the racecourse, the spacious Tote Modern Gallery will have works by members and guests of the Ōtaki Pottery Club. Since moving into their new space at the Tote last year, the club has enhanced its reputation for innovation and excellence, and expanded its membership to offer a wide variety of styles for visitors to look over.

At the Hall of Clay pop-up at the Rotary Hall in the township, ceramicists Kathryn Lim, Stacey Young, Sarah Beresford, Susan Connolley will be displaying their work.

And for stunning Māori artworks, you can’t go past Toi Matarau in the Māoriland Hub, and Toi Tangata, also in Main Street.
