Focus On Glass 2022

05 to 30 October 2022, at Estuary Arts Centre in Orewa, Auckland.

Focus On Glass 2022 is an opened-themed studio glass art exhibition showing all glass techniques and is in celebration of the United Nations International Year of Glass 2022.

With over 60 artists and over 200 art works exhibited, this is a must-see for glass enthusiasts and art lovers, and a wonderful opportunity for the New Zealand public to experience a range of glass disciplines: from kiln-forming, casting, blowing, flame-working, and other specialized glass techniques, made by talented New Zealand artists, craftspeople, and makers from across all of New Zealand.

As an open exhibition, Focus on Glass allows emerging and early-stage artists to exhibit alongside established artists.

During the month of October Estuary Arts hosts two glass art exhibitions curated by GAINZ (Glass Art In NZ) – alongside ‘Focus on Glass’ is ‘Curious, looking thru glass’ – a whimsical themed exhibition.

*2022 has been declared the United Nations International Year of Glass (IYOG) - The Year designated to celebrate the essential role glass has in Society. Focus on Glass 2022 is a registered IYOG event and is included in official event recognition to the UN.
