This year, we welcome a completely revitalised curatorial team. Curators Melissa Reimer and Ryan Dewsbury bring a bold new vision and fresh perspectives; almost one-third of the 55+ festival artists are new in 2025.
Explore over 200 works, from intimate handcrafted objects to striking large-scale installations, across a range of materials and styles—perfect for collectors, art lovers, and the simply curious.
Great Hall: Discover small-to-medium pieces daily, 10am–5pm
North Quad: Wander among larger works anytime
Every piece tells a story - and every sale supports both the artist and the future of The Arts Centre. As a major annual fundraiser for Te Matatiki Toi Ora, your support helps keep Ōtautahi Christchurch’s unique creative hub thriving.
📅 Sat 4 - Sun 19 Oct 2025
⏰ 10am - 5pm
📍 Great Hall & North Quad, The Arts Centre, Christchurch
