Mangawhai Artists Gallery Extension To Build A Community Art Workspace

Project 2018-09-10 10:58:10 +1200

The Mangawhai Artists Gallery is too small to have workshops at the same time as exhibitions. We want to change that!  We plan to create an art workspace for year-round daily use by people of all ages.

The Gallery is, and the Art workspace will be, community-owned under the stewardship of the Library Hall Trust.

"It looks like this is going to get across the line. I am so pleased for you. I am a writer so appreciate all arts, but especially artists, (we are all cut from the same cloth). I think people often don't realise the importance of art though - its therapeutic value in dealing with issues such as depression and the value of self expression in our culture and in challenging societies perceptions. And of course we always need to see more beauty in the world! I have taken my discipline (words) to explain in more detail by citing a quote from Catherine Brookes “The arts matter because art is meant to move people either on an intellectual or emotional level. Whether this is a book that stays with you days later, or a performance that moves you spiritually or a song that makes you look at the world around you in a different way. The purpose of art is to cause a reaction and with this purpose it can create a synergy of change; change in attitudes, perceptions, and thoughts.” Debbie Swanwick"
