Great Plate 2021

The Great Plate Annual Fundraiser for the Quarry Arts Centre is happening once more in July 2021. Around 100 artists are supporting the fundraiser this year, donating their time and resources to design plates that will sell via auction. Each plate is a unique piece of artwork, made by mostly Northland artists, with a few special guests included.

This year, the well-known fantasy author and TV producer Neil Gaiman has designed plates for this fundraising event.

All Great Plates will be listed on TradeMe from Thursday 29 July, when the bidding will open, with the pieces on show at the Yvonne Rust Gallery. The auction will run for one week, with bidding ending on Thursday 5th August. Each plate auction will end at a different time and might extend depending on the popularity of the art.
