Art Showcase Manawatū
At Caccia Birch House
9 & 10 May 2026
Art Showcase Manawatū celebrates the creativity and talent of artists from across our region. Bringing together both first-time exhibitors and experienced practitioners at one of Palmerston North's most treasured heritage buildings, Caccia Birch House, this year we showcased an exciting and diverse collection of artworks across a wide range of mediums. Held on 9 & 10 May 2026, visitors chatted to artists, enjoyed delicious coffee and kai, and were able to hear the stories behind each work.
Art Showcase Manawatū is proudly presented by Square Edge Community Arts, with a commitment to making the arts accessible and creating opportunities for artists to share their work with the community.
Ngā mihi nui to everyone who exhibited, visited, and to Palmerston North City Council for supporting Art Showcase Manawatū 2026.

“The art was fantastic - such colours and expressions. Each artist had a style and a feel that made me feel inspired.”
