✨ BIG CHANGES ARE HAPPENING AT RETURN TO EDEN GALLERY ✨

You may have noticed things look a little different around here!

Last month, Return to Eden Gallery changed hands from Adele & Deb, to Sharon, and it’s been a whirlwind ever since. 💚

Here’s what’s new:

🌿 Green walls! Our shop space has had a fresh new look.

🎁 Beautiful gifts. The front room is now packed with unique gifts and treasures.

🎨 A gallery makeover, including custom-made display panels so we can showcase our incredible local artists.

🧵 A brand-new workshop space upstairs! Complete with sewing machines and a very well-stocked fabric selection.

We’re excited to bring all sorts of creative classes to the community, and we’re also looking for other creatives who’d love to host workshops here! If that sounds like you, send us a message.

This isn’t your typical art gallery with big white walls showing one artwork at a time. There’s lots to discover, and we guarantee you’ll spot something new every time you look.

Keep an eye out, because we have some exciting workshops coming soon! And tag the friends you’d love to bring along. 💚

We’d love to see you!

Commissioned these moveable walls and they far exceed the vision we had for them.

Thanks to Heath and team at Forsyth Construction for taking time out of their busy house building schedule.

We're unpacking a new delivery from the incredibly talented Alexandra Jamieson... and wow! Just wow!

Each piece is beautifully crafted, with Al's unmistakable style shining through.

There was also a magnificent Humpback Whale in this delivery, but it sold before the bubble wrap was even completely unwrapped!

If you'd like to see these beautiful new works in person, we'd love to see you at the gallery. If you're further afield, just get in touch and we're happy to provide more information or additional photographs.

Freshly arrived in the gallery, N**e Knitting is an impressive large-scale oil painting from JK Reed's own private collection, created during his Cubist period in the late 1960s.

Works of this size, age and provenance are seldom available, making this a special piece for collectors and admirers of New Zealand art alike.

Now on display in the gallery.

📍 Winter hours: Wednesday–Sunday, 11am–4pm
Or get in touch for more information.
