2 - 30 November
Village of Small Things is a participatory collage installation at Wānaka Library by House of Small Things, led by Wānaka artist Hannah Paterson for the month of November.
A creative station will be set up in the Wānaka Library for the whole month of November inviting library visitors to create a house and contribute to the growing village.
Participants begin with an envelope, using its existing shape as a starting point. With found images, words and paper fragments, they transform it into a house that can be playful, personal or entirely imagined.
Each house becomes part of a growing village, bringing many distinct inner worlds together in one shared artwork.
Village of Small Things is part of Creative Spaces 2026, a month-long exhibition pairing local creativity with spaces across the district and inviting locals and visitors to discover creativity in unexpected places.
With the support of Creative New Zealand Toi Aotearoa.
No booking required, materials provided.
