South Coast Arts Trail 2025
About
The South Coast Business and Promotions Association is our parent not-for-profit organisation, supporting the South Coast businesses and community, and the South Coast Arts Trail celebrates and promotes artists that live, work, or have strong connections to the South Coast of Wellington.
The South Coast Arts Trail spans the seaside suburbs of Ōwhiro Bay, Houghton Bay and Island Bay, through to Berhampore.
The trail features local artists emerging and established, alongside artists from community organisations and young artists from our local schools.
From painting and iconography to sculpture, ceramics, textiles and more, it's a creative showcase ready to be explored by all.
Team
Meet our Team
The South Coast Arts Trail is run by a small, dedicated team of volunteers who live on the south coast and bring professional expertise in filmmaking, the arts, business, sponsorship and community development.
Together we're working to make the South Coast Arts Trail a fixture in the Wellington Te Whanganui-a-Tara arts calendar, and to ensure it remains a worthwhile weekend for artists, visitors and the community alike.
