$350 [Friends Only Event]
Join the Friends for a weekend exploring art in the Queenstown and Arrowtown region.
The trip commences at 3.00pm on Friday 11 November with a walking tour of dealer galleries in the Queenstown CBD, followed by drinks and a chat at Starkwhite Gallery. We will conclude the evening with dinner together in Queenstown.
Saturday morning begins at 8.30am as we board our chartered bus and head to Lake Hayes for a personal tour of a private sculpture garden. This 4 hectare property hosts 60+ national and international sculptures, which we will spend the morning exploring. Stout walking shoes and a reasonable level of fitness are required as this is an alpine property.
Having worked up a healthy appetite, we will enjoy lunch together before visiting another two private collections in the afternoon in the Millbrook Area. If time allows, we will briefly explore Arrowtown including an exhibition of Central Otago artist collective Indigo at Lakes District Museum & Gallery. At 5.00pm we will gather for drinks and a chat at NMG before returning to Queenstown.
We will round off the trip on Sunday morning with a visit to another private collection, this time in Queenstown. The trip concludes at approximately 11.30am.
Spaces are very limited so don't miss out!
