Queenies Café has kicked off with flying colours! ☕️
We are so happy to welcome James Rutherford and the new Queenies Cafe team to Te Aratoi o Whakatū | The Suter Gallery!
Tucked into the edge of the beautiful Queens Gardens, this much-loved spot is off to a fresh start. The tables are full, the coffees are rolling out, and our locals are back in the house!
It's been wonderful to see the space come alive again, with familiar faces returning, new faces arriving, and Nelsonians gathering over a good cup of coffee.
Here's to a new chapter in the whare kai!
Nau mai, haere mai! Come on in, pull up a chair and say hello. ☕️

Lisa Walker’s delightful exhibition has arrived at The Suter! We’re thrilled to have Walker’s playful pendants keeping us company here at the gallery.
Although trained as a goldsmith, Walker is widely known for her inventive, inquiring and often humorous approach to jewellery, pushing the boundaries of what it can be.
In That Furrows the Brow, her pendant heads range from sewn and stuffed linen to densely beaded stones, including garnet, turquoise, labradorite and aquamarine. Some bring together precious stones and soft, everyday materials in unexpected ways.
Since its installation last week, our Contemplation Gallery has lived up to its name. The pendants continue a lively, colourful and intuitive questioning of what jewellery can be, in ways that may well furrow the brow.

What a month it has been at the gallery!
October has been jam-packed with our Seasonal Opening, Clay Week, Nelson Arts Festival, workshops, live art demonstrations, music and more.
To begin the month, hundreds gathered shoulder to shoulder at our Seasonal Opening, sharing in the stories, perspectives and art of Te Tauihu and Aotearoa. What a way to begin!
Our community continues to explore the galleries, with plenty still to discover and new exhibitions just around the corner.

“My style has always been Hip Hop Momoyama ... one has to mix the old and the new together and make it something that can be recognised as itself.” — Aaron Scythe
Having spent fifteen years working in Japan, Scythe brings together Japanese ceramic traditions with influences from his life in Aotearoa. He works into this 'Hip Hop Momoyama' as a playful meeting of cultures, traditions and ideas, where old and new come together in unexpected ways.
Find this little treasure in *Seen Anew | Te Arahou*, our exhibition celebrating The Suter Collection.

Our tamariki are back in the house!
Term 4 is off to a colourful start as local schools return to the whare for another term of creativity.
This term is hands-on with 'Bringing Art to Life,' a workshop that explores artworks through movement, drama, storytelling and expression.
Through play and imagination, our young artists are discovering new ways to connect with art, bringing the stories within each work to life and finding a little of themselves along the way.
Nau mai hoki mai, tamariki mā!

A little colour to wrap up the year! ✨
The beautiful foyer at The Suter Gallery has been home to many wonderful events this year. As 2026 draws to a close, the Foyer is the perfect setting to bring people together for an end-of-year celebration.
🎶 Great music
🥂 Drinks and kai
💫 A beautiful space to connect and celebrate
We love bringing people together, and our team takes care of the details. No formalities, no fuss — just good company, a wonderful atmosphere and a memorable way to finish the year.
Nau mai, haere mai — get in touch to plan your end-of-year stand-up function!

Mana toi, mana tangata.
At our Seasonal Opening last week, hundreds gathered to hear the stories behind the new exhibitions. He taonga.
“I could see the crowds gathering from the other side of town,” said one of our audience members. “Just like the times when the whole city would go out together for an event.”
Four exhibitions opened, and what a gift to see Whakatū come together to experience them.
Ngā mihi nui, Nelson. Until next time!

It's been a messy few weeks in our education rooms — and we wouldn't have it any other way!
Clay, paint, dust, and a whole lot of creatives. There's been no shortage of makers at the gallery, all getting stuck in together. Just as we wrap up a wonderful series of workshops with Clay Week, the fun begins again with our Term 4 community classes!
Drawing, painting, and mixed media are all underway, and week after week, artists from our community are bringing their creative practices into the gallery. We are so excited to share the rest of the year with you all.
Maranga mai!
Here's to our makers!

What a sight to see our whare so full!
Shoulder to shoulder, the crowd at our Seasonal Opening filled every corner of the gallery to hear Michael Lett of @lettthomasgallery and Toni MacKinnon share the stories behind the art.
Alongside our local community were our Clay Week whānau, who had travelled from across Aotearoa to join us here in Whakatū. Every room in the whare was bustling. From our education rooms and theatre to our galleries and foyer, our community continues to bring vibrant kaupapa and arts to The Suter, season after season.
A special thank you to everyone who shared their time and aroha. We were delighted to celebrate together at our Seasonal Opening.
It was a full house!
Ngā mihi nui, e hoa mā.

Not your standard theatre show!
This week at the Pastorius Waller Theatre, the potters took over the stage.
Monday to Friday saw a full house line-up of live throwing, firing, sculpture, and a whole lot of clay. The masters of their craft stepped into the spotlight, giving Whakatū crowds a front-row seat to the making.
Here’s Anneke Borren on the wheel — turning heads!
To our whānau at @nelson.clay.week, ngā mihi nui. And to everyone whose mahi behind the scenes brought so much joy to the gallery, thank you.
Mā te mahi tahi, ka tipu ngā toi mō te katoa.
What we can create when we come together.

Suspended outside the gallery, Kate Newby’s hand-blown glass hangs in mid-air between the building and the nearby trees.
The glass catches the light and casts reflections all around.
As the exhibition enters its final week, we celebrate the work of Kate and Stuart Newby — father and daughter — and their shared mihi to the connections of te taiao — the natural world — our home and our place within it.
