Collaborative Projects

Each year the NZ Art Guild create a collaborative art project for its members to participate in.

It all started in 2006 when 49 NZ Art Guild members created 49 individual artworks which combined into one fantastic artwork called "Fusion" . This artwork was used as the draw card for the first annual members exhibition at the Bruce Mason Centre, Takapuna, Auckland. Fusion was then auctioned via TradeMe and sold for $8350. All the funds were distributed back to the participating artists.
