The Creators' Room, which launched in 2018, offers a youth development programme available to young creatives aged 15 to 18 years to showcase their work and connect with our community of collectors via their annual Art Stars Exhibition.

The programme currently receives over 2000 submissions per year from young creatives. The Creators’ Room provides upfront financial support, through the purchase and professional framing of the original artworks and funding the reproduction of limited edition prints.

The artworks are then made available to the collectors through an online marketplace and annual exhibition, with a commission of all sales going directly to the artists. In 2021, the exhibition is featuring the following Rangi Ruru students works: 

• Amie Coombes
• Sammie Senior
• Saige Henderson
• Brigit Moston
• Ava Smith
• Brietta Freeman
• Eleanor McVicar
• Sophia Smith
• Eva Wu

Date: Saturday, September 25 to Saturday, October 9 from 9am to 6pm. 

Location: The Hereford to High Street Atrium, entrances at 248-250 High Street & 150 Hereford Street, Christchurch.
