The second annual Sculpt Nature Competition is set to take place from 18-27 October this year in partnership with the Nelson Arts Festival!
Sculpt Nature was first launched in 2022 as a 9-day eco-sculpture symposium and competition hosted by the Brook Waimārama Sanctuary. The aim of the competition is to bring together the creative arts and conservation sectors through a symposium event that focuses on using natural materials. The sculptors’ work will inspire a greater connection between the public and the natural environment while spreading the message of ecosystem restoration to the wider community.
