Whangarei Quarry Gardens in the heart of the Western Hills in Whangarei, sees the return of Sculpture Northland from Friday 3^rd until Sunday 12^th, November. This biennial event provides a wonderful platform for local artists to exhibit their work in the stunning natural landscape of these subtropical Gardens, with its dramatic rocks, waterfalls and lakeside. With over 40 artists contributing to the exhibition, it promises to have a hugely diverse range of works in the 100+ collection.

Sculpture Northland gives local artists, a superb opportunity to show the greater community their talents, diversity and passion, demonstrating what a vibrant arts culture we have right here in beautiful Northland, and what better place to do this than Whangarei Quarry Gardens, one of the city’s greatest treasures.

All of the art works are for sale at a wide range of prices. Over 70% of the art featured in the last exhibition was purchased by delighted buyers.

The wonderful Garden volunteers have been working overtime to prepare a great array of plants for this year's Plant Sale to be held on Saturday 4^th and Sunday 5^th. This is always a favourite for local visitors, and a great chance to meet the people behind the scenes at the Gardens.

This is a major fundraiser for Whangarei Quarry Gardens and as such they are always interested in attracting new sponsors and patrons to continue the growth of this exhibition. The Gardens are a labour of love and rely on donations and the hard work of volunteers, making it a true community project.

Entry $5 per person or $10 per family (up to 4 people), doors open 9am-4pm Friday 3^rd – Sat 12th
