Art Box Gallery have put out the challenge for their artists to create pieces of work during the lockdown due to Covid-19 virus. Each artist is allowed to produce up to ten pieces of art any medium or genre in the time they aren't able to get out and about. We've got quite a few signed up already so looking forward to sharing them with you as time goes on. Each piece will then be delivered to the gallery after the lockdown and we hope to display them all. Any piece will be valued at $100 and the artists will receive the lion share of sales as its a pretty tough time out there now in the creative world. As they appear online you are able to 'grab' one and I'll put your name on it for later. It's a great way of starting a collection or getting a piece of art from an artist you love. We hope you join us on our facebook page as we upload them. Art Box Gallery@ Loftus

At Art Box Gallery® we are all for paper, yet it must be the right type. When you buy a work of art on paper or on canvas at Art Box you are investing in an enduring pleasure and supporting the New Zealand arts community. Other paper is soon gone and as the kitty above shows us, the more you have the more you will waste.

Despite the current crisis and increasing 'shutdowns' Art Box Gallery® remains open for visitors. Of course we have our hand sanitiser at the ready and are taking other precautions. For those reticent to come out we can visit if required. With physical travel increasingly constrained why not take your mind on a journey. With art there are no limits to the places you can visit.
