Printopia 2023

Printopia Festival of Original Print is back.

 

We’re excited to announce another fun, print-filled weekend of inspiring talks, demos, workshops, live printing and of course a print fair and exhibition.

 

  When: 5 – 7 May 2023 | Friday 6pm – 9pm | Saturday 10am – 3pm | Sunday 10am – 3pm.
Where: Corban Estate Arts Centre | 2 Mt Lebanon Lane, Henderson, Auckland

 

What’s New?

We thought 2022 was pretty awesome, which is why we’ve extended the festival to a 3-day event! There’ll be an opening night on Friday 5 May for you to meet old and new friends while you sip on a cocktail or two, snap up some gems at the print fair and celebrate the winners of the PRINTOPIA Print Prize and Exhibition.

 

Want to have the chance to win cash prizes, art products and have your work exhibited during the festival? The PRINTOPIA Print Prize and Exhibition is new initiative to promote experimentation and innovation in contemporary printmaking in Aotearoa.
