Sponsorship

The Partnership is principle sponsor of the Carey Smith & Co Whanganui Arts Review and has been for many years. This is an annual curated exhibition for artists living in the Whanganui region and is held at the Sarjeant Art Gallery in the spring. It is an opportunity for emerging or experienced artists to exhibit their recent work in a public gallery forum.  The Arts Review is an excellent opportunity for visitors to view an exciting range of work by over 140 artists working in our local region. The exhibition features painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture and video work and includes the work of a broad range of people from our community, from high school students to senior citizens.

We also sponsor the Whanganui Artist's Open Studios and the Graduate show for the UCOL Bachelor of Fine Arts.
