About Us
Visually inspiring, the volcanic landscape of Taranaki, with its ring of wild coastal beaches, green and pleasant land, myriads of clear streams and bush covered slopes, all provide a beautiful backdrop to a fascinating weekend event held annually.
2024 we will be celebrating our 11th year of artist open studios.
Established in 2014 the Taranaki Arts Trail provides the public with the unique opportunity to meet with artists' in their studios and workshops. Ultimately, the Taranaki Arts Trail aims to build a greater understanding in the community of the processes involved and the skills required, in creating a work of art.
With the artists' studios extended over the two weekends and many artists for the full ten days; this year provides you a greater opportunity to visit and enjoy the artists' open studios.
