Creative Trail coming in 2026

Whether you’re an art enthusiast, a supporter of local talent, or simply seeking inspiration, the Waipa Creative Trail promises to be a day filled with excitement, discovery, and artistic expression.

The Waipa Creative Trail is a celebration of art, creativity, and community engagement. It will feature multiple open studios and community events throughout the day, providing a unique platform for local creatives to showcase their talents, share their creative process, and connect with the community.

Our Kaupapa of the Waipa Creative Trail is to develop a region that values creativity and recognises its role in supporting health and wellbeing. An event for creatives and artisans to engage directly with the community. By opening their studios and participating in community events, they can not only showcase their work but also make sales, fostering a thriving creative economy in our region.
