- **Event Description**: Here’s your Christmas shopping all planned out! We can’t think of a better gift than art – and you probably agree!

Continuing our tradition, we’re offering artists the chance to submit their work, while providing you the opportunity to purchase outstanding original and affordable pieces, whether for yourself or as gifts.

We’re thrilled about this exciting event! Put on your crash helmets and get ready for the largest art buying frenzy this Christmas in the Bay of Plenty. This spectacular show featured 165 works last year!

Small-sized artworks (30 cm square) available for just $117 each.
This year has been another whirlwind of successful exhibitions at The People's Gallery - Toi ka rere, highlighting a diverse range of artists. We’ve showcased hundreds of students from local schools, along with cultural groups, allowing them to exhibit and sell their creations.

Our exhibition programme relies on fundraising events like this one, where your purchase also supports the artists involved, many of whom generously donate as well.

Opening preview Saturday 29th of November gathering at 10am celebrating three other exhibitions in our other galleries and the official launch of the Tauranga Runway Public mural.
