 Hawke's Bay's home for Disabled Artists and Outsider Art! Situated in Taradale, Hawke's Bay New Zealand, we are a Disability Service, Creative Space, Art Gallery, and Lifeskills Education Centre. Our Winebox Auction is now an established event on the Hawke's Bay Art Calendar and our Education Programme features Courses in Art, Life Skills, Bone Carving, Sculpture, Toi Maori, Painting and Computers, to name a few! The art produced at Mosaic is fresh, inventive, uncontrived and just amazing! Whether you call it "Raw Art", "Outsider Art", "Naive Art " or "Art Brut" it is the kind of art other artists wish they could make.  Our aim is to support disabled people to become more confident and independant... we believe that disability shouldn't matter! You can buy genuine outsider art from our art gallery or on-line gallery and support Real People. You can visit our artists studio and meet the real people behind the unreal art! No wonder we are called "Mosaic" - our amazing Mosaic wall and mermaid is more than a great public artwork and tourist attraction - its a metaphor for everything amazing that we do! |

Great Exhibition Opens at Mosaic Gallery
Joleen wilson's first solo exhibition "Making a Mark" is on the wall at Mosaic's Gallery. It is a great exhibition if you are at all interested in "outsider art" with Joleen's use of crowded imagery and repetition two hallmarks of our kind of art. 
See more about this exhibition and more about the artist. |

Bad Drivers With Cellphones |

I heard about the trouble with people talking or texting on their cellphones while they are driving which is very disappointing. It will give motorists a real wake up call to pay attention on the road at all times. The other thing to remember is some drivers get very distracted and the consequences do not do them any favours. After a long period of time the cellphones will be put somewhere else out of sight which will come in handy. Some people pull over in a safe area to talk to theirs friends, while others end up dead all because their phone is not switched off. It is not a rule in the road code, however it is a recommendation. |
