The Raglan Arts Weekend (RAW) is a highly anticipated open studio art event, held every October over Labour Weekend here in Whaingaroa.
RAW is now in its 14th year and draws thousands of art aficionados from across the country who come to get a sneak peek into the creative process of Raglan’s local talent. There are many new artists this year as well as established favourites. You can visit over 60 artists working in an exciting and diverse range of media from recycled metal sculpture, silk fabrics and ceramics to jewellery, photography and taxidermy, as well as the more traditional art forms, such as painting and illustration. RAW also sees the return of ‘The Hatch’, an emerging artists exhibition.

‘Weaving experiences through people and place’
Welcome to the Whāingaroa/Raglan iHub, the one stop destination for all you need to know about this beautiful place.
We are a community defined by our natural rugged landscape, our unique connection from shoreline to mountain top, inland to our gentle rolling hills, our daily lives in synchronicity with the ebb and flow of the tides and changing seasons.
This place is made up of our coastal township of Raglan and our rural communities. We are diverse, we value hapu and iwi, we are people friendly with a strong community spirit grounded firmly in taking care of each other and our environment.
We celebrate creativity; arts, music, dance, theatre, drama, education, food and innovation.
We are renowned for our world class surf breaks, however, Raglan has so much more to offer, whether you’re seeking that perfect wave, exploring our eclectic shops, browsing our numerous galleries, learning our rich history, or simply enjoying a coffee, Raglan has something just for you.
We warmly welcome you here to this place that we are blessed to call home, we ask that you love and care for our place, as we do and in return, we will take care of you.
