Featuring the best of contemporary Maori art.

Kei te mihi nui atu ki a koe, otirā ki a tātau katoa e nanaiore nei ki te whakatutuki i ngā mahi toi e tumanakohia ana mo tēnei whakaaturanga. No reira, nau piki mai, nau kake mai!

Maori art Market promises to be bigger and better than both the San Francisco 'Maori Art Meets America' project in 2005, as well as ‘maori market 2007’ in Wellington city.

This prestigious contemporary Maori art exhibition will be host to artist debates, presentations and a sensational opening gala evening. Indigenous fashion designer Dorothy Grants lastest collection, hot of the New York fashion week runway, will be stepping out each day.

We have nine guest artists which include leading Native American, First Nations Canada, Pacific Islands and New Zealand artists. This emphasis on the artist is a key difference between this gathering and other Art Fairs. Māori art market is a time for the public to meet the artists, see them working, and for the artists to discuss and debate the issues of today.

The Maori art market event is led by a unique partnership between Toi Maori Aotearoa and Porirua city in association with Pataka Museum of Arts and Cultures and Te Rauparaha Arena .
