Calling all artists

Would you like to display your art work at Ashburton Library?

Art Track is a public arts space at Ashburton Library for exhibiting two dimensional art works. The aim of the Art Track program is to provide a free space for emerging artists to exhibit their work and to provide the wider community with the opportunity to view a diverse range and variety of art.

The space itself is located on the internal south wall of the Ashburton Library above the magazine section where there is natural lighting. The hanging area is eight metres wide by one metre high and uses a flexible picture hook hanging system.
The minimum exhibition time is one month and opening hours correspond with the Ashburton Library opening hours.
