Art And Wine Fair ‘Inspires’ Support For Marlborough Talent

Marlborough artists, Gerard Verkaaik, Glen Waters, Jacqueline Hocquard, Kevin Judd and Sudhir Duppati will begin their exhibition together in Blenheim today at The Wine Station.

The five talented locals are the third set of artists to be showing for two weeks as part of the Marlborough Art & Wine Fair, which launched on 29th June and will run until 4th October.

“We are thrilled with the support we have had from the domestic market visiting The Wine Station to enjoy and purchase the art,” says Director, Kirsty Parry.

There is an abundance of creative talent in Marlborough and we have extended the event for another two weeks so we can showcase as many artists as possible.

”Inspire Foundation, dedicated to supporting Marlborough young talent is the charity aligned with Monday’s upcoming artists and will receive 50% of the gallery fee for each piece of art sold over the two weeks.”

“Inspiring speakers, inspiring young talent and building a more resilient community – these are our goals at the Inspire Foundation in Marlborough. We do this so our extraordinary young talent can reach their potential and in turn, be better future leaders of our beautiful province – giving back and helping others builds stronger communities. We are proud to partner with the Marlborough Art and Wine Fair – it is a fantastic initiative supporting local artists and provides a wonderful platform for any of our young local people.”
