Space Studio and Gallery in Taupo Quay, Whanganui will be five years old this week and owner Sarah Williams is celebrating with a special exhibition.
"I've selected work from my private collection," she says.
"Artists have gifted me work from their exhibitions and I have asked the ones I've selected to contribute a new piece or a response to the original one."
Ms Williams was a recent fine arts graduate working as a courier driver in 2012 when she spotted a "for lease" sign in the window of 64 Taupo Quay.
"I always liked the building and I was really thinking about finding space to work and that's how the name came about as well.
