Gibbs Farm Tour - EveryKid Charity Fundraiser
Event description
Gibbs Farm is a privately owned property with a one-of-a-kind open-air sculpture park. EveryKid Charitable Trust Manatōpū is privileged to hold a fundraiser day at Gibbs Farm and encourage you to see this incredible place for yourself, whilst supporting EveryKid. There is no entry fee to visit Gibbs Farm - all money from these ticket sales will go directly to EveryKid (for more info on what we do, visit https://www.everykid.org.nz/). We thank the Gibbs Farm Trustees and employees for their much-valued support.
Gibbs Farm rests on 400 hectares of re-formed farmland on the Kaipara Harbour, 47 kilometres north of Auckland. It contains the largest collection of large-scale outdoor sculptures by some of the world’s leading artists, commissioned and curated by Alan Gibbs over the past 30 years.
Join us for this exciting opportunity to visit the private art collection on Gibbs Farm. You will see large-scale sculptures that the artists have designed to fit with the landscape as well as some exotic animals, including giraffes! On your visit you will be able to roam the farmland, to take in the views of the harbour and gain perspective of the sculptures from a distance and right up close. Pack a picnic and come and take in the sculptures, animals and the stunning landscape the artworks respond to and transform.
Get ready to be wowed!
Tickets are $80 per person. Tickets are non-transferable.
