To celebrate our 20th Anniversary we have the pleasure of hosting one of New Zealand’s most celebrated artists, Dick Frizzell has created some of our country’s most iconic works. His art captures the spirit of Aotearoa — blending landscapes, Kiwiana, Māori motifs, abstraction, and popular culture with his unmistakable style. 
 
Tickets are also available at Hot Waves Café, Hot Water Beach.
$55 includes a complimentary drink, snacks, access to artists, and the first chance to purchase artwork by members. 
 
The twentieth Gala Event of the 2026 Mercury Bay Art Escape is a wonderful social evening of art not to be missed.
