About artists.org.nz

A central place to discover creative talent, visit spaces, join events, and support artists across New Zealand.

Our purpose

artists.org.nz exists to make it easier for people to find and connect with artists and creative organisations. We bring together directory listings, open studios and trails, events, and shop-style discovery so audiences can plan visits, learn about practice, and support makers in their communities.

Who we serve

Artists building a public profile and sharing work with collectors and visitors.
Spaces and hosts welcoming audiences to exhibitions, studios, and regional programmes.
Anyone curious about creative life in Aotearoa — from locals to visitors planning a trip.

How it fits together

The site combines curated and directory-style listings. Over time, accounts and APIs can link your profile, artworks, events, and spaces so updates stay in sync. Today you may see sample content while integrations are rolled out.

Questions or partnerships?

We would love to hear from artists, regions, and organisations who want to collaborate.
