A new wave of Tauranga creativity at 117 Willow
Following the success of Paul Darragh’s recent pop-up art sale, 117 Willow has been transformed once again — this time into a dynamic group exhibition and art-shop experience featuring ten local artists. The evolving showcase includes works by Darcell Apelu, Graham Crow, Jamie Coxon, Paul Darragh, Lynette Fisher, Damien Kurth, Isabelle Mathys, Duane Moyle, Nicol Sanders-OShea, Anne Shirley and Ben Young. Together, they represent a vibrant cross-section of Tauranga’s contemporary creative scene — from painting and sculpture to experimental mixed media. **Open: Tuesday – Sunday | 10 am – 2 pm (hours may extend on busy days). Closed: Mondays Location: 117 Willow Street, Tauranga CBD (between Côte Bleu & Colonial Antiques) The exhibition runs until Saturday 14 December 2025. Entry is free. Works are available for purchase directly from the artists.
