SUMMARY:Beanie Fest 2026 Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: The Ninja Knits & The Incubator Creative Hub\nThe Ninja Knits in collaboration with The Incubator Creative Hub would like to welcome you to a Beanie Extravaganza. \nThey sent the call out to artists\, crocheters\, weavers and knitters to submit their creations and the work came rolling in. \nThis display of crafty art was created to involve and encourage groups and individuals interested in knitting\, crochet or woven works to produce a fun beanie. There are categories from Greenie Beanies\, Meanie Beanies\, Wild and Woolly\, Funky Junkie and Flight of Fancy. There are children’s section’s too. The submitters have let their imagination run completely wild and have made some truly unique creations for you to peruse and even buy. \nIntrigued? want to join in the fun? You still have time to submit a beanie (Grab a premade beanie and accessorise it to make it unique. Its all about ART\, not necessarily stitch\, or technique.) \nNinja Knits is a fun casual group based at The Incubator Creative Hub in the Historic Village. This group take part in yarn bombing in the Tauranga area and around the Historic Village. Several members of the group produce work to drop off in parks and other places around the village as random acts – paying it forward to create smiles and happy vibes. They meet once a month on a Sunday Morning. Learn more about them here. \nSponsored by Gate Pa New World. \nThis exhibition launch preview is Friday the 10th of April – 5.30pm to 7pm at The Incubator Creative Hub\, The Tauranga Historic Village\, 17th Ave\, Tauranga. Everyone is welcome. \nOn display in The Peoples Gallery Toi Ka Rere from the 11th of April to the 2nd May. \nFind out more
