It took almost six months and three postponements, but the Whangamata Art Collective pushed through the seasons to bring a hotly anticipated and sold out showcase of local art and music.
The event was initially scheduled to take place as an Easter Open Studio Art Tour which had to be cancelled due to Covid-19.
It was then decided after lockdown that a Mid-Winter Mingle would be held, and when this too was cancelled due to Auckland's return to a level three lockdown, the event became the Spring Mingle.
Finally, it was held on a sunny Sunday a fortnight ago, with all tickets sold out for a vivacious celebration of the creativity that has thrived in 2020.
