Here are a few places you can apply to get involved to sell your art:
The New Zealand Affordable Art Show
The New Zealand Affordable Art Show encourages New Zealander's to celebrate our identity and culture by buying local art.
The Trust’s vision is to promote and expose new, emerging and established New Zealand artists by providing opportunities to further their development and to promote the appreciation of New Zealand art and artists, bringing this together in an annual iconic event – the New Zealand Affordable Art Show.
It is believed that the show will serve to demystify the art world for the ordinary person and offer the chance to buy original art work in a fun and relaxed environment. It also enables many new and emerging artists to showcase and sell their work for the very first time.
It is the perfect opportunity for talent spotting – many artists have launched their careers from the show, gaining confidence and the affirmation that they deserve to continue to be a success in their field.

The Original Art Sale is one of the largest sales of art ever held in New Zealand and is now back for a third year in a new home. Several thousand pieces of art, sourced from across the New Zealand art community will be available at the massive 3 day event.
'The Sale' appeals to everyone from first time buyers to existing collectors wanting to spot fresh new talent. With prices ranging from $100 - $5000 our aim is to make original art accessible to all who wish to own it. The art supermarket concept is purposely designed to present a wide range of styles and mediums to satisfy every possible taste.
'The Sale' targets professionals in the business of buying art including corporate buyers, interior designers and consultants, but most importantly it will appeal to individual buyers.
