This year the Whanganui Arts Review celebrates its 30th year and the fact that it is the
longest-serving public arts review in the country.
As an acknowledgement of this important anniversary and to celebrate the exciting future now assured for the original Sarjeant Gallery building in Pukenamu Queens Park, the Sarjeant itself is delighted to present and sponsor the event this year which is named the 2018 Sarjeant Gallery Te Whare O Rehua Whanganui Arts Review.
Raewyne Johnson of the Sarjeant Gallery has been involved in every Whanganui Arts Review since its inception in 1988.
Firstly as an exhibitor of her ceramic work and then as an administrator with the Gallery.
"I am so pleased that the Arts Review has kept going this long," she says.
