This year there is to be….no theme!, You can enter whatever inspires you to create; is it our Northland weather that ignites your inner fires, or the changing colours of our native flora and fauna, maybe you find inspiration walking around our Town Basin or in the faces of the people that surround you, whatever your reason to create, we want to see it!
