Silke Hendel Art in Multicultural Exhibition – Whangārei 2025

Celebrating Culture & Connection: My Art in Whangārei’s Multicultural Exhibition

Whangārei Harbour original artwork by Silke Hendel – Multicultural Art Exhibition 2025

I’m honoured to have two of my most personal paintings selected for the Multicultural Art Exhibition — an inspiring celebration of culture, community, and connection through art.

Both pieces hold deep meaning for me — one inspired by special memories sailing with my Dad, and the other an emotional journey painted through grief and healing. It’s incredibly special to share them as part of this exhibition, which showcases the diverse voices of local artists and celebrates the stories that shape us.

Where: Reyburn House Art Gallery, Whangārei
When: 8 July – 3 August 2025
Free entry

If you’re nearby, I’d absolutely love for you to see the show in person — it’s packed with heartfelt pieces from amazing artists across our community.

If one of my paintings speaks to you, come see it at Reyburn House — or make it yours online before someone else does.
