Launching Mercury Bay Art Escape Open Studios 2024 is the ever-popular Gala event on Friday 1 March at 6pm at Hot Waves Café, Hot Water Beach. Guest speaker ‘Flox’ is an internationally renowned stencil and mural artist. Her trademark is native birds, ferns and flowers in distinctly vibrant colours. We are fortunate to have a ‘Flox’ mural ‘The Messenger’ in Monk Street, Whitianga. Hear Flox’s story, enjoy local music, canapes, complimentary drink and first look at the Showcase Exhibition. Tickets available on our website. www.mercurybayartescape.com
