NEW Uxbridge Arts Store
On Thursday 6 November we opened another new concept in our Centre, the Uxbridge Arts Store. Situated in our Reception area, it is of necessity a small affair and therefore featuring mainly smaller pieces, many of which are under $100, perfect for gifts!
All the work is made in New Zealand and includes some of the most accomplished artisans and artists producing today. There is jewellery, ceramics, glass, woodware, lights, greeting cards and various funky and unusual items that defy categorisation! We hope to provide you with a store full of the highest quality pieces, with a focus on Aotearoa New Zealand. The shop is open the same hours as the Office.
