Coast Collective, "Our Fantastic Forests," 2018

Please join us on April 21, 1-3 pm for the free opening reception where you can enjoy light refreshments while meeting the artists and enjoying the art.

This Earth Day, explore life in the forests through the eyes of children.  Our region’s young artists will delight you with their interpretations of the cycle of life where everything is connected, from tiny bugs to tall trees.  Children up to age 12 from all over the South Island will bring in artwork in a variety of media, from paint to graphite, clay to mixed media, textiles to collage.   

First celebrated in 1970, Earth Day events take place in more than 193 countries around the world.  Coast Collective is delighted to offer young people the opportunity to express their respect for life on the planet through their art.
