By far one of the best galleries in Northland, if not the best!
Village Arts is Hokianga’s community art gallery. Scheduled solo and group exhibitions plus a showcase space highlight the area’s established and emerging artists.
The spacious white-walled gallery showcases contemporary painting, photography, mixed media, sculpture, furniture, object, jewellery, ceramics, and traditional and contemporary Māori arts.
On Te Ara Manawa: The Heart Trail and Northland Art Trail, Village Arts is located on the main street in historic Kohukohu on the northern shores of Aotearoa/New Zealand’s spectacularly beautiful Hokianga Harbour.
Village Arts is a non-profit charitable organisation that operates under the umbrella of the Kohukohu Community Trust and aims to support the development of a robust and vibrant arts community in Kohukohu and Hokianga.
Conservation Week
DOC and the local Conservation Board have exhibits on show at Village Arts.
Our native species need some help and this year’s theme is “Take Action for Nature”. Come and view the interactive conservation displays with trees from the local native tree nursery. Write your own conservation message on the gallery window and get some ideas on how you can make a difference. The Conservation Week display will be open Wednesday 3rd to Saturday 6th September, 10am to 2pm.
