WAIPU MUSEUM ART'NTARTAN WEARABLE ART 2021
Great news! The Organising Committee is delighted to announce that Art’nTartan is scheduled to be held in 2021 with a new format and new dates.
Providing we remain in Level 1, and inside gatherings of more than 100 people are permitted, the contest will be held in the October School Holidays on 15 & 16 October in the Celtic Barn.
Claire Drake, Producer and Debi Walters Brown, Director said today “We know that our many artists and designers have continued to design throughout 2020 and would love us to hold the awards again in 2021. We have therefore decided to proceed with the backing of the Waipu Museum Board and full details of the competition will be announced shortly”
There will be a new simplified format, which will provide for all types of entries and a competition for masks for the local primary school children. Prizes will be awarded across a range of categories and will encourage everyone from new entrants to the most experienced artists.
We expect to open entries in February and close them in mid- July. Pre-judging will be held in late August.
Welcome to Art’n Tartan 2021! Let’s make it a huge celebration of creativity in our community.

Time to Tickle Your Thinker 🧠
If a zookeeper had 100 pairs of animals in her zoo, and two pairs of babies are born for each one of the original animals, then (sadly) 23 animals don’t survive, how many animals do you have left in total?
