I agree with the following statement:

I will be attending the Art Shows Across Aotearoa 2026 in person to set up, manage and uninstall my own panels at the commission rate of my selected artist pack (40% Large Sculpture and 25% commission otherwise) and I will follow all H & S instructions.

SELECT YOUR ARTIST PACK DETAILS

Please select the artist pack below that you wish to apply for. Panels are 2.3 H x 1.2 W, are velcro receptive and are a soft black colour. Panels are in a straight row. Please contact us if you would like a corner site.

Please note that limited storage space will be allocated to artists closer to the event. Artists are expected to be present to manage their own panels during the show as work always sells better with the artist in charge.

Please note that some options may be listed as unavailable as the floorplan fills to capacity.
