Marc Spijkerbosch talks about public art

Julie Parsons from Rotorua Museum

Friends of the Museum welcome you to join them for refreshments at Te Rūnanga tea house in the Government Gardens followed by slide show and talk with internationally acclaimed award-winning artist Marc Spijkerbosch.

Marc has been delivering public art to New Zealanders for over 30 years. He is an award-winning artist enjoying international acclaim and he’s one of our own!

You might best know him by his early work on the Tarawera water tank, the power boxes and of course the library tromp l’oeil mural now gone. Or if you're a rugby stalwart, the pink and white terraces at the stadium!

Marc works with cities, communities, commercial and private clients across New Zealand and is frequently engaged by organizations, community groups and learning institutions to share his colourful experiences and successes – offering fresh insights and energy in the public art arena.

Bookings essential and easy, just click on the button and follow instructions, but please let us know if you’ve booked and can’t come so that we can let someone else attend.
