Franklin Art Festival - 21 year Celebration

The Festival this year celebrates it's 21st year - and what a festival it will be.  To all the artists, organisers of the festival, and the general public, Pukekohe will certainly come alive again in September. 

Franklin Arts Festival is an annual celebration of visual arts held in Pukekohe, showcasing the work of talented artists from not only the Franklin District, but from all over New Zealand.

Established in 1989, the Festival has grown considerably in both size and popularity.  Every year we are proud to host hundreds of works of art in a variety of mediums, created by practising artists from all walks of life. It is a true celebration of our diverse and vibrant creative communities. All works of art are for sale.

For information on how to join us as a volunteer, or how to buy tickets to our Opening Night (as well as lots of other helpful information), check out our FAQ pages. You can also sign up to our new mailing list to stay in the loop.

The non-profit Franklin Arts Festival Society are thrilled to invite you to join us in celebrating this, our 21st annual Festival.  We encourage you to explore, discover and be inspired...
