Events

The Arts Village run a wide range of events and classes throughout the year- from themed art markets, festivals, music performances, and community events.

One of our busiest events is Art in the Park, which is held in early February. This market features local artists, a wide variety of art mediums, crafts, and yummy kai!

During December and January, we offer low-cost workshops that are led by our chosen Open Studios Project resident artists. They are a great way to discover something new at a low cost!
