Gallery curator Millie Newitt says ‘New Art, Fresh Start' celebrates new local talent and the artists who are currently on display have exhibited at Creative Tauranga in the past.

'This is a collaborative exhibition and most of the artists are emerging to the New Zealand art scene,” says Mille.

'The artwork ranges from realistic and abstract landscape, to sculpture and ceramics, to portraiture and abstract wax works.”
