Penelope had so much fun painting and creating artwork, i love i don’t have to clean it up at home 😝 so many different stations of art and the staff are amazing!
The girls had an absolute blast, such cool beads, good quality, lovely staff, kids didn’t want to leave

Daughter had a wonderful time. The teacher was kind and patient with the kids.
Thank you
I love Carol’s teaching. Great class.
Lovely environment and atmosphere
Fabulous activity, perfectly pitched for the assigned age groups. My granddaughter was so pleased with her completed book she went home and produced another 2. Thank you to Amy for great teaching.
Carol is an excellent trainer. She is very knowledgeable and always happy to help … plus she is very encouraging when needed. I am certainly enjoying the classes. Can’t wait for next term. Thank you for the opportunity.
CAN is our community.
Something for everyone.
Keep up the good work.
Great place to visit and a wide variety of exhibitions, workshops to attend. Very friendly, helpful staff and a very pleasant atmosphere to spend some time in. PS. Would you consider some chairs for disabled people and maybe a self service coffee/tea machine. Just a suggestion
Lovely group of people, very inclusive and excellent instructions.
Happy to support CAN, think of this as a donation.
Great selection of local art on show through frequently changing exhibitions,love the workshops offered and the craft markets
Thank you so much for running these events for our local youth. We really enjoy your Seaweek competition each year.
A great way for kids to engage creatively. They got a real kick out of seeing their own photos displayed in the gallery. Super cool👍😎
So easy to enter and submit. My sculpture Spirit of Napier was displayed beautifully. Thank you. Staff was helpful and supportive. Thank you. Would certainly consider entering my work again
Lovely staff and atmosphere
Staff were very helpful and supportive in the lead up to and throughout the market operation.
Awesome team - friendly, welcoming and full of helpful ideas. Thanks again
Wonderfully set up and friendly staff. Such a well organised market. Thank you
Lovely space, nice flow for customers, a few good sales, thanks Marie
I really enjoyed having a stall at the Creatives Market. The opening was great and it was really easy to set everything up with the tables already there and ready for our work.
This was a wonderful opportunity to showcase my Art and Crafts. The staff were great, communication excellent. The only negative is that there needs to be street signs advertising this venue as we are missing out on all the visitors driving along the Marine Parade.
Thanks to Carol this is a wonderful class. I was a very nervous absolute beginner & she made this a night I didn’t want to miss. Carol is a great teacher , very patient & supportive. Highly recommend this class 😊
Very inclusive group and Carol very helpful and tolerant with projects ! Loved it, will do it again.
Great for HB artists to have this opportunity. Thank you
The opening evening was very good. A well supported event.
I was nervous at first, but the application process was really quite easy. Thank you for the opportunity to enter. I’ll try again next year, have a wonderful day.
I was very happy to have been selected for this exhibition! Communication was excellent and the opening night attendance was incredible. A lovely carefully thought out space and hanging of works. Thanks
Such a fresh and diverse range of artwork and artists, it was an important exhibition for CAN support and to provide for hawkes bay, they did a wonderful exhibition
Honoured to be a part of the 2025 HB Art Review. It’s an ongoing story inviting the public to come and view local work- I think CAN does an amazing job as a community space- thank you.
So pleased I was able to be a part of it.
Congratulations to the guest selector Israel Tangaroa Birch.
Nicely complimented artwork.
If only it was on for a few more weeks.
I really enjoyed the selection of works. I noticed a lean toward artists with a maori name or Maori culturally related images.
I thought with so many entries that it may have been fairer to limit each artist to ONE selection…some artists had 2 or 3 of their works selected.
VERY ENJOYABLE and INSPIRING overall
It was a great opportunity to show case one’s art and support an exhibition that is now well established on the regional arts calendar. It was an honour to be selected by Israel Birch.
Easy to enter and follow instructions. Clear communication / encouragement/ help throughout. The exhibition itself was arranged well and displayed with professionalism.
I would have liked to have a statement of some sort on display with the work.
Perhaps give winners a heads up next year? A shame so many prize winners weren’t at the opening.
Overall an awesome experience. I’m very grateful to have been selected and thank CAN very much for all the hard work :)
Very organised and informative! Great selection of art with different mediums and materials!
I loved the workshop. thank you Lou
Excellent course and tutor. Great opportunity to attend
Unfortunately I was unable to attend the launch but enjoy exhibiting in CAN and find all staff there friendly and professional. I look forward to having some artwork there again for the arts trail.
