Just 40 minutes from Auckland’s CBD, Muriwai Beach is a wild and wonderful west coast community. Famous for its sweeping black sand, powerful surf and dramatic cliff-top gannet colony, it’s also home to a vibrant collective of award-winning local artists.

Discover the work of talented creatives across painting, photography, jewellery, ceramics, rusticology, mixed media, sculpture and textiles. Inspired by the raw coastal landscape, their art comes alive through workshops, exhibitions, open studios and immersive experiences. Family-friendly and welcoming to all.
